Cannot find method 'qast' on object of type NQPMu
REPL does not like the $j.

seems a bug to me. Environment details follow signature.
My usual plaint with the REPL is just that it is a REPL and so cannot
always behave like the compiler unless it gets an entire program in one
Read and has not polluted the Eval with state saved from a prior Loop.
Which is what makes it great for snippets; but allows the occasional
false failure.
Maybe worse is that it helps me be bad-lazy about typing ';'.
