<masak> ugexe​: surprising, at least. a token is a kind of method, so
why would that clash at all with `return` as a sub?

<masak> ugexe​: I think the problem isn't the declaration of `token
return`, but the call `<return>`, which looks both for subs and
methods... perhaps?
<masak> and since there is a lexical sub &return, it finds it

<jnthn> masak​: But it's only meant to find things of type Regex, I thought...
* jnthn had suspected it was calling .return
<jnthn> As an action method
<jnthn> But apparently not, O did the action method wrong
* masak submits rakudobug

In summary, it seems to be calling &return, but it shouldn't do that.

Ah, fun one. The problem is actually that after the return regex matches, it looks for actions. $*ACTIONS is likely set to Mu or Any if you don't supply an actions class. And Mu has a method return, which gets invoked.

This is a dupe of RT#​127945. Tokens with names of Mu methods invoke those on the default Actions class. The workaround is to override those in your own Actions class.

The aforementioned TODO fudge has been removed from the spec in Raku/roast@6bf5aaebdd
Re-add if this issue is resolved in the way the test expects it to.

I didn't mean to close this. Fat fingers. That said, I think that the fix to the issue I just mentioned this in means this issue may, hopefully will, be closed.

Fixed in Raku/roast@31115d7
