From @eserte

This is a bug report for perl from slaven@​rezic.de,
generated with the help of perlbug 1.41 running under perl 5.27.8.


A minor nit in perl5.27.8's perldelta.pod​: the two examples

  sub f :lvalue ($a, $b) { 1 }; # 5.20; 5.28 onwards
  sub f ($a, $b) :lvalue { 1 }; # 5.22 - 5.26

don't work because a read-only value is returned. A complete test script​:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use feature 'signatures';
no warnings 'experimental';
sub f :lvalue ($a, $b) { 1 };
f(1,2) = 123;
__END__

Output is​:

Can't return a readonly value from lvalue subroutine at signatures.pl line 5.

Probably using a variable here would be better.
