<masak> rakudo​: "foo" ~~ /foo/; say "What kind of $()l am I?"
<p6eval> rakudo 451b40​: OUTPUT«What kind of l am I?␤»
<masak> hm, shouldn't that say 'fool'?
<pmichaud> no
<masak> rakudo​: "foo" ~~ / foo {make "foo"} /; say "What kind of $()l am I?"
<masak> pmichaud​: what about that?
<pmichaud> masak​: that looks buggish.
<jnthn> I think make not done inside an action method has always been
buggy, fwiw.
<pmichaud> I think make is just broken in rakudo
<jnthn> pmichaud​: Yes, that matches my experience.
* masak submits the other rakudobug
<pmichaud> nqp​: say(('foo' ~~ / foo { make 'foo' }/).ast)
<p6eval> nqp​: OUTPUT«␤»
<pmichaud> hmmm.
<pmichaud> okay, I'll look at that one.
<pmichaud> but I do suspect a bug in rakudo's &make
<pmichaud> as in, it appears that rakudo doesn't have one.

@coke - Status changed from 'new' to 'open'

The behavior has changed​:

02​:33 <[Coke]> rakudo​: "foo" ~~ /foo/; say "What kind of $()l am I?"
02​:34 <camelia> rakudo-jvm e8cea1​: OUTPUT«(timeout)»
02​:34 <camelia> ..rakudo-parrot e8cea1, rakudo-moar e8cea1​: OUTPUT«What kind of
  fool am I?␤»

02​:33 <[Coke]> rakudo​: "foo" ~~ / foo {make "foo"} /; say "What kind of $()l am
  I?"
02​:33 <camelia> rakudo-jvm e8cea1​: OUTPUT«(timeout)»
02​:33 <camelia> ..rakudo-parrot e8cea1, rakudo-moar e8cea1​: OUTPUT«What kind of
  fool am I?␤»

02​:33 <[Coke]> nqp​: say(('foo' ~~ / foo { make 'foo' }/).ast)
02​:33 <camelia> nqp-moarvm, nqp-jvm, nqp-parrot​: OUTPUT«␤»

Resolved in Rakudo by now (think it's been fixed at least a year or two). Verified we have test coverage (we do, in S05-match/make.t). Resolving.
