<jnthn> Aww.
<masak> can't blame a guy for trying. :)

I'm writing this bug report from a pre-lazy slice of the timeline, so
we're lucky the above didn't hang. But it could very well emit a nicer
error message while not hanging. :)

As of 3d1afedfd18a85d570c96937d9abe7f0d6128c49 this now gives the error
message​:
14​:42 <@​moritz_> rakudo​: say 1...*
14​:42 <+p6eval> rakudo 3d1afe​: OUTPUT«Sorry, lazy lists and infinite
ranges are not yet implemented␤in sub infix​:... (file
src/gen_setting.pm, line 2494)␤called from Main (file /tmp/eMejuSe26x,
line 0)␤»

Which I believe is as awesome as we can get before having real lazy lists.

The RT System itself - Status changed from 'new' to 'open'

oh, I forgot... closing without test because it's not part of Perl 6
spec :-)
