This seems like a legitimate place for "saying what you intend", viz:
for (my $n is longlasting = 0, $m = 1; ...) {...}
Albeit that's a lame example of how to do it.

In Perl5, given code like
for (my $n = 0; $n < 10; ++$n) {.}
the control variable $n will be local to the for loop. In the equivalent
Perl6 code
loop my $n = 0; $n < 10; ++$n {.}
$n will not be local to the loop but will instead persist until the end of
enclosing block.
