Given this code: ----- use v6; my role R { has $.thing; } multi sub trait_mod:<is> (Attribute:D $attr, :$whatever) { $attr does R; $attr.thing = 42; } class C { has $.val is whatever; } ---- I get this error: ---- ===SORRY!=== Error while compiling /home/autarch/projects/perl6/MetaX-Attribute-LazyBuild/./foo Cannot modify an immutable Any at /home/autarch/projects/perl6/MetaX-Attribute-LazyBuild/./foo:13 ---- There are two problems here. One is that the line number is unhelpfully pointing at the line where I declare "has $.val is whatever" and the second is that I'm not being told what exact "immutable Any" can't be modified. It'd be greatly preferable to get an error like "Cannot set immutable attribute thing on $attr at ...foo:9"
