This goes even further​:

[14​:59​:24] <lizmat> r​: my Int @​a=<foo bar>; say @​a # yikes!
[14​:59​:25] <+camelia> rakudo f8e970​: OUTPUT«foo bar␤»

From @lizmat

This appears to have been fixed.

The RT System itself - Status changed from 'new' to 'open'

From @usev6

Since this works now I've added 3 tests to S09-typed-arrays/arrays.t with the following commit​: Raku/roast@ece637835e

For the last example ("my Int @​a=<foo bar>;") there was already a test (written for ticket 114968).

I'm closing this ticket now.
