Rakudo, r30888. When defining a grammar and regex, defining a regex
after a grammar places the regex in the grammar namespace, but vice
versa works fine. Below is some demo code (switch the definition
placements and comment out the check against Foo​::Bar to see it
magically work)​:

grammar Foo {
  rule TOP {\d+}
};

regex Bar {\d+};

# smart match against Foo may change based on RT 58676
'123' ~~ Foo;
say $/;

'1234' ~~ Foo​::Bar; # works?!?
say $/;

'12345' ~~ Bar; # fails
say $/;

Ah yes, forgot to clear the thingy holding the current namespace. Fixed
it in r31006; if you have time to contribute a test for this somewhere,
that'd be wonderful.

Thanks for reporting,
