If you're going to have versions of sqrt in S29 that deal with Complex
numbers, you ought to do likewise with a number of other functions:
multi sub abs (: Complex ?$x = $CALLER::_ ) returns Num
should return the magnitude of a complex number. abs($x) :=
$x.magnitude, or whatever the appropriat

There seems to be another typo on the same line: "just as method like"
instead of "just as methods like".
