I've been saying for some time now that .= should mean exactly what one would expect
it to mean, method call and assign the result, for code like

They're not quite equivalent -- I think eval's still wrapping a try/catch
around the call.

Speaking to the practical side, I have written code that has to
disentangle
itself from the failure of a complex startup sequence. I'd love to be
