Code​:
say 5 xx Inf;

Result​:
This type cannot unbox to a native integer
  in block <unit> at ./test.pl​:2

I expected an infinite list to be created.

22​:09​:08<lucasb> AlexDaniel​: … IMO, it also should work with Inf

S03 says that xx should accept *, it does (
http://design.perl6.org/S03.html#Replication). But maybe it would make
sense to add Inf as well.

Fixed with c0f03bf9b606462de6aa , closable with tests.
