<moritz_> rakudo​: if(3 < 5) { say "yes" } # that should fail
<p6eval> rakudo 31963​: OUTPUT[yes␤]
<masak> moritz_​: another bug report :)
* masak reports
<moritz_> masak​: I just wanted to suggest just that ;)

Early experimentation indicates that this goes for unless, while,
until and given as well, and probably others I can't think of now.

Just for the record (since the ticket doesn't explicitly mention it),
this should result in a syntax error because the block is a term
in operator position ("two terms in a row").

In STD.pm they just have​:

token statement_control​:if {
  <sym> :s

To turn on sigspace beyond that point. Once PGE implements that, it will
be pretty easy to fix this (and the others).

Thanks,

  Statement not terminated properly at line 1, near "{ say 'yes"
