I was toying around with Pugs and I tried the following Perl 5 list assignment

Huh.  I didn't think that worked in Perl 5, either.  What am I misremembering?
I distinctly recall having to do things like (my $a, undef, my $b) to
avoid errors because you can't assign to undef.  Maybe I'm just
hallucinating.
