Rakudo v2031.03 ????
Have I been asleep for a decade?
My Rakudo is v2021.12.
I'm not sure what context you are using, so why you are getting errors.
POD6 commands do not work with REPL.
Here is the contents of a test file, which can be run with 'prove6 -v
t/config.t' assuming the following are in 't/config.t'
The first three tests are in the Roast test suite and have been passing
for years. I'm not aware they fail with any version of Rakudo.
The =defn test is related to my earlier email and shows that Definition
lists cannot contain embedded POD6.
use Test;
plan 8;
my $p = 0;
my $r;
=begin pod =for DESCRIPTION :title<presentation template> = :author<John
Brown> :pubdate(2011) =end pod $r = $=pod[$p++].contents[0];
is $r.config<title>, 'presentation template';
is $r.config<author>, 'John Brown';
is $r.config<pubdate>, 2011;
=begin pod =for head1 :attr('key') :battr<key2> This is a working header
=for head1 = :attr('key') :battr<key2>
This is what is being tested =defn Bad boy When you B<try>to include
formating. Outside a definition list B<formating>is treated differently.
=end pod $r = $=pod[$p++];
is $r.contents[0].config<attr>, 'key', "'attr' is found in first header config";
is $r.contents[1].config<attr>, 'key', "'attr' is found in second header
config";
isa-ok $r.contents[2], Pod::Defn, 'third item is a definition list';
isa-ok $r.contents[3].contents[1], Pod::FormattingCode, 'Ordinary paragraph
contents has a Formatting Code';
todo 1;
isa-ok $r.contents[2].contents[1], Pod::FormattingCode, 'Definition contents
has a Formatting Code';
done-testing;

I just tried that with Rakudo v2031.03 and got a compile
time error for this line:
= :newkey<newvalue>
Preceding context expects a term, but found infix = instead.
Did you make a mistake in Pod syntax?
But this does work, and it is a passing test in the Roast suite
=head1 :key<value>
= :newkey<newvalue>
For me I got the same error as above. This was so for anywhere from
zero to 10 spaces between the `=` and `:newkey<newvalue>`.
However, the intent of S26, as stated in the raku documentation, is for
the first variant above to work, and also for the following case
(this being what is intended as a virtual margin):
=head1 :newkey<value>
= :newkey<newvalue>
For me I got the same error (for the ` = :newkey<newvalue>` line).
But this does works (and it seems to be two virtual margins)
=head1 :key<value>
= :newkey<newvalue>
Same error.
My results vs yours suggest someone has changed this behavior
between v2021.3 and your version.
Having looked at commits to Grammar.nqp since 2021.03 I don't
understand how that can be if you're using a later version.
I have looked at the grammar for this situation, which I think is at
https://github.com/finanalyst/rakudo/blob/ae2bf80dae74986c75f9a610f7a25cc1f6cdbb36/src/Perl6/Grammar.nqp#L5093
Blame suggests that code was.last affected (merely moved) 3 years ago:
https://github.com/finanalyst/rakudo/blame/ae2bf80dae74986c75f9a610f7a25cc1f6cdbb36/src/Perl6/Grammar.nqp#L5093
but I cannot see why the actual behaviour occurs, but the documented
(apparently intended) behaviour does not.
The behaviour change and blame suggests it's not due to that line.

Alternatively I am utterly confused.
Either way, happy new year. :)
