I've gone ahead and marked .ucfirst and .lcfirst as deprecated in Rakudo. ...however... In reality it's the spectest (roast) suite that officially controls what is in Perl 6 (not the synopses), and there are still a _lot_ of instances of lcfirst and ucfirst hanging around there. So as long as the spectest suite expects ucfirst and lcfirst to work, I consider them to be a required part of Perl 6 and this "bug" report is a bit premature. :-) :-) Pm

ucfirst has been marked as DEPRECATED for some time now, including tests in roast. Unfortunately, my RT fu prohibits me from closing this ticket.
