You must remember that the Perl 6 parser is one-pass now.
It is? Are you sure?
It should be;
Doesn't mean it will be. And "should" is an awfully strong word...
This is true; however, I don't see where anything would need more
than 1 pass, except to reduce complexity in some places. After all,
since the parser is to be constructed with regular expressions, then a
second pass would only be another use of regular expressions, which
means the "second pass" could have been included in the parser in the
first place. Of course, the parser isn't close to finish yet; as such,
its anyone's guess as to what the final product will be. :)
