This be Rakudo a609d7 on Parrot r43600.

$ perl6 -e 'sub regex() { say "OH HAI" }; regex()'
Malformed regex definition at line 1, near "()"

$ perl6 -e 'sub token() { say "OH HAI" }; token()'
Malformed regex definition at line 1, near "()"
[...]

$ perl6 -e 'sub rule() { say "OH HAI" }; rule()'
Malformed regex definition at line 1, near "()"
[...]
