Using `$Blob1 ~= $Blob2` on jvm gives an error of "java.lang.RuntimeException: This type does not support positional operations" To reproduce: `my Blob $a = "a".encode; my Blob $b = "b".encode; $a ~= $b; say $a.perl;` I added debug prints but the output makes it appear that it should work: https://gist.github.com/ugexe/8a83f69fdb81bf989377 The above basically boils down to `nqp::splice(utf8.new(), utf8.new(97), 0, 1)` but when I call this manually it works fine.
