[Brent Laabs via RT]

On the original bug, bisectable suggests f457007181bb might have caused this 
("allow ~~ to chain where practical")

For bonus points, you can fix the bug:

01:37   MasterDuke      bisectable6: my $v = rx/foo/; say("foobar" ~~ $v); 
say("foobar" ~~ /foo/)
01:37   bisectable6     MasterDuke, On both starting points (old=2015.12 
new=b7201a8) the exit code is 0 and the output is identical as well
01:37           MasterDuke, Output on both points: True␤｢foo｣
01:38   MasterDuke      bisectable6: old=2015.07 new=2015.12 my $v = rx/foo/; 
say("foobar" ~~ $v); say("foobar" ~~ /foo/)
01:38   bisectable6     MasterDuke, Bisecting by output (old=2015.07 
new=2015.12) because on both starting points the exit code is 0
