Rakudo is simply following STD.pm here, and STD.pm (r26884) allows any pod identifier to go to the end of the file. S02:3319 seems to indicate that the "=begin END" form is special, which implies to me that the non-END forms should indeed have the required closing marker. If we can get confirmation that only the "=begin END" is special, then I'll adjust Rakudo's grammar to follow that (and possibly STD.pm as well). Thanks! Pm
