Reproduced. Looks like you shouldn't nest subs inside recursive functions
atm :S.
More golfed with just $level being used to demonstrate:
sub process-list (@items, $level = 0) {
multi sub process-item ($item) {
('=' x $level) ~ $item;
}
multi sub process-item (@array) {
process-list(@array, $level + 1)
}
join "\n", map &process-item, @items;
}
my @a = 'a', 'b';
put process-list([ 9, @a, 7, 6, @a, 15, 11 ]);
-----
9
=a
=b
=7
=6
==a
==b
==15
==11
^ It is never incremented/re-assigned but $level is still +1 after the call
has finished.
