Subject: Re: [BUG] parse error in complex heredocs

i had assumed that the fact that it was a hash (my mail had mistake - 
'{' instead of '[' )
would make it wait for the =>
but was incorrect - testcase:
irb(main):001:0> {5
irb(main):002:1> => 6}
SyntaxError: compile error
(irb):1: odd number list for Hash
(irb):2: parse error
=> 6}
   ^

if this could work my test cases could look pretty :)
maybe i could use "# => " instead... but not as nice :(
