From @cognominal

Test program below gives
===SORRY!===
Unable to parse blockoid, couldn't find final '}' at line 7

  grammar A {
  token TOP { <a> };
  token a { a }
  };

  class A​::A {
  method TOP($/) { say :$&lt;a> }
  };

  A.parse('a', :actions(A​::A));

Note​: the specs don't mention that form for capture variables, neither
the form for context variable.
The latter works as expected though.

$ perl6

my $*a = 1; say :$*a.perl
"a" => 1

Yes, it should work​:

<masak> std​: :$<a>
<p6eval> std 31912​: OUTPUT«ok 00​:01 111m␤»

Implemented; works now​:

'abc' ~~ /a $&lt;a&gt;=[\w+]/; say :$&lt;a>.perl
"a" => Match.new(orig => "abc", from => 1, to => 3, ast => Any, list =>
().list, hash => EnumMap.new())

Tagging testneeded.
