# Tests the generic "=" prefix operator.
# See thread "PATCH: S04 - unary C<=> is not slurpy" from Patrick R. Michaud,
# especially Damian's reply at
# L<"http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perl6.language/21895">.

# Update: L<"http://use.perl.org/~autrijus/journal/25337">
# &prefix:<=> is just .shift in item context; in slurpy context it just turns
# the iterator into a generator. All arrays are concatenations of generators
# (which may or may not be preflattened)
