In a grammar that uses a proto+parameterized multi, the "multi" is
optional according to S05. However, the presence of the "multi"
seems to prevent proper operation of this feature under certain
circumstances:
# perl6 -e 'grammar f { proto token g {*}; token g:h<i> { i* }; token g:h<j> {
j* }; proto token l {*}; multi token l:m<n> { n* }; multi token l:m<o> { o* }
}; f.parse("i", :rule<g>).say; f.parse("j", :rule<g>).say; f.parse("n",
:rule<l>).say; f.parse("o", :rule<l>).say;'
「i」
「j」
「n」
(Any)
It seems to work fine in other circumstances. The same as above, but
without the quantifiers yields:
# perl6 -e 'grammar f { proto token g {*}; token g:h<i> { i }; token g:h<j> { j
}; proto token l {*}; multi token l:m<n> { n }; multi token l:m<o> { o } };
f.parse("i", :rule<g>).say; f.parse("j", :rule<g>).say; f.parse("n",
:rule<l>).say; f.parse("o", :rule<l>).say;'
「i」
「j」
「n」
「o」
