'is default' trait works in mainline, but not in classes
if 'is default' is the default for classes, then behaviour is not the
same as in mainline
So either
a) is default not implemented for classes;
b) spec for classes does not have the same behaviour as is default for
mainline.
$ perl6 -v
This is perl6 version 2013.11 built on parrot 5.9.0 revision 0
$ perl6
> class A { has $.a is default(2) is rw}
Null PMC access in get_string()
>
> my $a is default(2); $a=3; say $a;
3
> $a=Nil; say $a
2
> class B { has $.a is rw = 2}; my B $x.=new; say $x
B.new(a => 2)
> $x.a=Nil; say $x
B.new(a => Any)
