Thanks.  Hopefully this time there will be some traction because there does 
appear to be a bug in Perl 6, as evidenced by this one-liner:

  perl6 $ ../../parrot perl6.pbc -e 'my $x = 3; $x **= 2; say $x'
  3

Unless, of course, this isn't supposed to be implemented yet, but that seems 
strange since it's in the basic tests.

Cheers,
Ovid
