I have a fix which currently suits my need. But the real problem, like
you said in IRC is to eventually merge the
PGE and the rakudo implementations of protoobjects.
I note that S12 that .WHAT and .WHO should return objects that
stringifies to strings and not directly strings
like in PGE implementation.
