Subject: Parser oddity with <- and =
Here's an odd parse:
a <- b = 1
This appears to be parsed as
`<-<-`(a, b, 1)
instead of being equivalent to
a <- b <- 1
I wonder if that's intentional?
(This showed up at https://stackoverflow.com/q/70989067/2554330, where
it caused a lot of confusion. I think the original intent was that `a`
would be a macro holding `b = 1`, but I'm not sure of that.)
