[perl #123060] [BUG] `$++` statements in routines sometimes give the anonymous variable `my` scoping, sometimes `state` scoping in Rakudo

[Carl Mäsak via RT]

<TimToady> as for $ = 'A', currently that's equivalent to (state $) = 'A', 
since the $ doesn't actually parse as a declarator, but is promoted to a 
declaration in the actions
<TimToady> maybe we can fix that somehow
<TimToady> could also argue that it should be restricted to integers
* TimToady loves to argue so much that he often ends up arguing both sides.  :)
* TimToady would've made a bad lawyer... :)
