I would expect both outputs to be the same. But the array is wrapped
again in an array.

finanalyst​: rakudo​: class A {has @​.s}; my %h='n'=><a1 a2 a3>; say
%h<n>.perl;my A $x.=new(​:s(%h<n>));say $x.s.perl
p6eval​: rakudo 543d67​: OUTPUT«("a1", "a2", "a3")␤[("a1", "a2", "a3")]␤»

No real change since then​:

jnthn says the current output is correct. marking testneeded.

13​:37 < diakopter> jnthn/sorear​: ^^ which is right
13​:38 < diakopter> RT #​74636 wants both .perl to output the same
13​:40 < jnthn> diakopter​: I think Rakudo and Niecza's outputs are saying
the same thing
  really.
13​:40 < jnthn> diakopter​: Or close enough.

13​:41 < diakopter> jnthn​: so are they both right for both .perl (can I
mark the ticket
  testneeded)?
13​:41 < jnthn> diakopter​: It's doing what I expect it to do there, yes.
13​:41 < jnthn> diakopter​: That is, it's item-y when it's in a hash
value.
