When defining a class as follows​:

  class Foo {
  method list {
  say "bar"
  }
  };

calling the 'list' method as below​:

  my $f = Foo.new;
  $f.list

will produce the following error in Rakudo​:

  too few arguments passed (0) - 1 params expected
  current instr.​: 'parrot;Foo;list' pc 187 (EVAL_13​:91)
  ...

Changing the method's name from 'list' to something else does not produce
the same error.

Now fixed as of r35418​:

  $ cat x
  class Foo {
  method list { say "bar"; }
  }

  my $f = Foo.new;
  $f.list;

  $ ./parrot perl6.pbc x
  bar
  $

Note however, that the 'list' method is the one that gets called by
various operators to obtain the list representation of an Object, so
overriding it in this fashion might produce some bizarre results.

Assigning to moritz for spectest update.

Thanks!

Added a test to t/spec/S12-methods/instance.t
