last 2 days we've started seeing thousands of failures on the daily
rakudo.parrot run. Doing a git bisect, looks like the commit that
started the failures is​:

$ git bisect good
9515bb7636d2352a68bf770d80964f5907526fbc is the first bad commit
commit 9515bb7636d2352a68bf770d80964f5907526fbc
Author​: jnthn <jnthn@​jnthn.net>

  Tweak some protos for better Junction failover.

  We can make the proto itself be (Any, Any), meaning it fails to bind.
  However, this also means that the multi-dispatcher never gets chance
  to sneak an entry into the cache for the Junction case, so we have to
  go through the slow-path binder to fail over every time, rather than
  cheaply identifying we should hit the Junction dispatcher.

... whether or not my git bisect is right, here's a golf of one of the
currently aborting spectests​:

19​:10 < [Coke]> r​: use Test; is(​:10('01110') , 0d1110, "​:10('01110') is default
  decimal");
19​:10 <+camelia> rakudo-{jvm,moar} c00999​: OUTPUT«ok 1 - :10('01110') is default
  decimal␤»
19​:10 <+camelia> ..rakudo-parrot c00999​: OUTPUT«(signal )»

The commit that caused this was re-worked to avoid the issue. Closing ticket.
