The bug is worse than that. The cases that do not get a bizarre copy do
not return assignable arrays, either:
use Test::More 'no_plan';
sub if119797 : lvalue {
if ($_[0]) {
@119797
}
}
eval { (if119797(1)) = 4..6 };
is $@, "", '$@ after writing to array returned by if';
is "@119797", "4 5 6", 'writing to array returned by if';
Output:
ok 1 - $@ after writing to array returned by if
not ok 2 - writing to array returned by if
# Failed test 'writing to array returned by if'
# at - line 9.
# got: ''
# expected: '4 5 6'
1..2
# Looks like you failed 1 test of 2.

It is wrong. leavesub and leavesublv don’t pop scopes back to the
subroutine the way return does, so the op_leave preceding it is not
optional.
The problem here has also to do with op trees not getting flagged properly:
$ ./perl -Ilib -MO=Concise,if119797 -e 'sub if119797 : lvalue { if
($_[0]) { @119797 } }'
main::if119797:
6 <1> leavesublv[1 ref] K/REFC,1 ->(end)
- <@> lineseq KP ->6
1 <;> nextstate(main 3 -e:1) v ->2
- <1> null K/1 ->-
3 <|> and(other->4) K/1 ->6
- <1> ex-aelem sK/2 ->3
- <1> ex-rv2av sKR/1 ->-
2 <$> aelemfast(*_) s ->3
- <0> ex-const s ->-
- <@> scope K ->-
- <0> ex-nextstate v ->4
5 <1> rv2av[t1] K/1 ->6
4 <$> gv(*119797) s ->5
-e syntax OK
Notice that the rv2av has no M indicating modifiable context.
And then S_adjust_stack_on_leave in pp_ctl.c probably also needs adjustment.
