<gfldex>        but this should (and do the right thing)
<gfldex>        m: sub a( --> Str(Int) ) { 42.Str }; dd a
<camelia>       rakudo-moar 6cd6ef: OUTPUT«Type check failed for return value;

<lizmat>        gfldex: but Str() is just short for Str(Any), so why shouldn't 
Str() work?
<gfldex>        oh yes, it should work but doesn't yet. There may be a RT 
already.
<gfldex>        lizmat: i just checked RT for "return" and could not find a 
matching RT for this
<lizmat>        gfldex: ok, shall I RT it or will you ?
<gfldex>        please RT
