(01:25:42 PM) AlexDaniel: frankjh: we'll see the result soon, but I guess you're right that it's a regression of some sort
(01:26:03 PM) AlexDaniel: frankjh: I confirm that on 2018.05 it passes OK
(01:27:14 PM) frankjh: AlexDaniel: travis uses now his is Rakudo version 2018.12-288-g5be7555fd built on MoarVM version 2018.12-45-ga9d02578aimplementing Perl 6.d. and it falis there too
(01:27:34 PM) AlexDaniel: frankjh: yeah… I wonder how we managed to miss that
(01:34:22 PM) AlexDaniel: frankjh: ok, it was bisected to this commit: 762c708

Fixed with ada116e . Since this was caught by tests, I guess we don't need any further tests?

[Kaiepi]

The fix for this is breaking tests on IO::Socket::Async::SSL because of this error:

> my CArray[CArray[uint32]] $a .= new: CArray[uint32].new(1),CArray[uint32].new(2)
CArray of CArray passed non-CArray object
  in method ASSIGN-POS at /home/morfent/Documents/perl6/rakudo/lib/NativeCall/Types.pm6 (NativeCall::Types) line 181
  in method new at /home/morfent/Documents/perl6/rakudo/lib/NativeCall/Types.pm6 (NativeCall::Types) line 235
  in method new at /home/morfent/Documents/perl6/rakudo/lib/NativeCall/Types.pm6 (NativeCall::Types) line 230

It also appears to be the culprit in #2687

[lizmat]

Will look at this later tonight

[lizmat]

Sorry, it will be tomorrow. Been too busy with too many other things to get the right mindset for this.

[lizmat]

Better fix with 5e5c909

[lizmat]

Argh... it doesn't fix this one :-(

[lizmat]

Removed original fix with 30fc514 to unbreak associated tickets

[lizmat]

Properly fixed with 84ed854

Tests added with b394b63 after fixing the Blob.new case as well with 05b9aa0
