Module: constant
Description
Redefining a list constant does not produce a warning.
Steps to Reproduce
This redefinition of a scalar constant warns:
$ perl -Mconstant=Scalar,1 -Mconstant=Scalar,4 -E 'say join ", ", Scalar'
Constant subroutine main::Scalar redefined at .../5.36.0/lib/perl5/5.36.0/constant.pm line 171.
4
But this redefinition of a list one doesn't:
$ perl -Mconstant=List,1,2,3 -Mconstant=List,4,5,6 -E 'say join ", ", List'
4, 5, 6
Expected behavior
I expected to see a warning when redefining the list constant.
