I have fixed this as of this MoarVM commit:
https://github.com/MoarVM/MoarVM/commit/712cff3341270362b808ba0f4c519f4557a4671d
Full explaination in the commit description.

Actually this is not a bug at all, and it is not limited to those characters.
If you do ('a' xx 2).chars you will get 3 as well. If you want to join the list
after you create it:
say ('a' xx 2).join.chars #> 3
