The following code​:

  my %h{Pair};
  %h{a => 1} = 2;
  temp %h = %h.clone;

should succeed. However, it fails with the following error​:

Type check failed in binding key; expected Pair but got Str

Rakudo version​:

This is Rakudo version 2015.12 built on MoarVM version 2015.12 implementing Perl 6.c.

Still present in Rakudo version 2016.07.1-88-g15ee3c3 built on MoarVM version 2016.07-11-g11e02fe, though with a slightly different error​:

  Type check failed in binding to key; expected Pair but got Str ("a\t1")
