$ perl -e 'print "a\U="'
Can't modify constant item in concatenation (.) or string at -e line 1, near "print "a\U=""
Execution of -e aborted due to compilation errors.

The "a\U=" string constant ought to generate ops corresponding roughly to
"a".uc("=") (which would then be constant-folded). However, the "=" is
being interpreted by the tokeniser as part of the concatenation operator,
producing ops corresponding to "a".=uc("") (which generates the error).

This happens because the implicit concatenation operator is generated
in toke.c via the Aop() macro, which allows an addition-type operator
to be mutated into an assignment operator if it is immediately followed
by an "=". It should instead be generated via one of the other macros,
or possibly a new macro, that doesn't allow for mutation to an assignment
operator. There are multiple sites in toke.c making the same mistake.
