It's a little different, so I'm going to leave them as two separate
tickets. #57864 arises because we end up with a regex name ('text')
that conflicts with a method name on Match objects ('.text'). This
one may take a little work to resolve, including a refactor of the
way PGE (and possibly Perl 6) handles match semantics altogether.
For this ticket (#58846) there seems to be an issue with Rakudo's
ability to override a built-in regex for grammars, unrelated to PGE
which is able to do overrides just fine. So, this bug is very
specific to Rakudo, and needs fixing independent of #57864.
Thanks for pointing out the other ticket, though, so that I could
characterize and distinguish them properly. :-)
