r31879​:

$ perl6 -e 'rule x = { x }'
get_iter() not implemented in class 'Closure'

STD considers this faulty syntax (and I do, too), but Rakudo
apparently tries to make sense of it, and fails at runtime trying to
apply prefix​:<=> to the closure { x }.

As of GIT 1b7a3e3 this reports​:

Malformed regex definition

As STD.pm does. Also pulled in those for methods and routines, so we
shouldn't get similar bugs in those.
