Bug #21048: [Prism] rescue in modifier form with condition behaves differently
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/21048#change-113752
* Author: Earlopain (Earlopain _)
* Status: Closed
* Assignee: prism
* ruby -v: ruby 3.4.1 (2024-12-25 revision 48d4efcb85) +PRISM [x86_64-linux]
* Backport: 3.1: DONTNEED, 3.2: DONTNEED, 3.3: REQUIRED, 3.4: DONE
----------------------------------------
With the following code there is a discrepancy in how prism and parse.y consider precedence:
```rb
$called = false
def foo
$called = true
end
foo rescue nil if false
puts "Called: #{$called}"
```
Prism interprets it as `foo rescue (nil if false)`, calling the method. `parse.y` does `(foo rescue nil) if false` since at least Ruby 2.0
```sh
$ ruby -v
ruby 3.5.0dev (2025-01-19T12:44:20Z master f27ed98eff) +PRISM [x86_64-linux]
$ ruby code.rb
Called: true
$ ruby --parser=parse.y code.rb
Called: false
```
