In Perl6, this does the former, too:
eirik@purplehat[22:25:34]~$ perl6 -e 'my $x = "good job"; my @y = « $x
hunting »; .say for @y'
good
job
hunting
eirik@purplehat[22:25:42]~$
… which surprised me, until I found that this does the latter:
eirik@purplehat[22:27:52]~$ perl6 -e 'my $x = "good job"; my @y = « "$x"
hunting »; .say for @y'
good job
hunting
eirik@purplehat[22:27:56]~$
