<masak> rakudo​: use Test;
<jnthn> But that came to and end a while ago. :-)
<p6eval> rakudo 35f337​: ( no output )
<masak> rakudo​: use Test
<masak> long delays... :/
<p6eval> rakudo 35f337​: ( no output )
<masak> locally, when I have a file with just 'use A;', it works fine.
If I remove the semicolon, it says 'confused'.
<jnthn> std​: use A;

<jnthn> :-/
<masak> both are equally ok.
<jnthn> agree
<jnthn> file Rakudo bug if Rakudo refuses to accept the latter.
* masak files rakudobug

Just for completeness...

$ cat A.pm
say "OH HAI";
$ cat test
use A
$ perl6 test
OH HAI
Confused at line 1, near "use A\n"

This seems to work now​:
$ cat A.pm
say "OH HAI";
$ cat test
use A
$ ./perl6 test
OH HAI

... no trailing confusion. assigning to moritz++ for testing.
