    There's a bit of odd behavior with the v2021.10-29-g580b3ba79 of Raku:
Again, I'm using my unreleased p6-GLib¹ for examples:
If I run this code in the project directory:
./p6gtkexec -e 'use GLib::Roles::Pointers; use File::Find; \
for find( \
  dir > "lib", exclude => { / "Raw" | "Roles" | ".precomp" | ".ref-bak" | "Compat" | "Class" | "Object" | ".bak" /}).sort( \
    *.basename \
) { \
my $f = .absolute.subst($*CWD, "").subst("/lib/", "").subst(".pm6", "").subst("/", "::"); \
next unless $f.contains("::"); print $f; require ::("$f"); my \o = ::("$f"); print " ({o.^name}) "; \
unless +o.^attributes { print "\n"; next; }; \
say " -----> { findProperImplementor(o.^attributes).type.^shortname }" }'

I get the following output:
GLib::Array (GLib::Array)  -----> GArray
GLib::AsyncQueue (GLib::AsyncQueue)  -----> GAsyncQueue
GLib::Base64 (GLib::Base64)
GLib::BookmarkFile (GLib::BookmarkFile)  -----> GBookmarkFile

So why am I getting Failure results from only some. Is this some error that is occurring due to the number of compunits
I am loadnig, dynamically?
Indeed, if I take the last few, and load them first...
./p6gtkexec -e 'use GLib::Roles::Pointers; \ 
for <GLib::Source GLib::TimeZone GLib::Value> -> $f { \
  print $f; require ::("$f"); my \o = ::("$f"); print " ({o.^name}) "; \ 
  unless +o.^attributes { print "\n"; next; }; \ 
  say " -----> { findProperImplementor(o.^attributes).type.^shortname }" }'

...things look fine:
GLib::Source (GLib::Source)  -----> GSource
GLib::TimeZone (GLib::TimeZone)  -----> GTimeZone
GLib::Value (GLib::Value)  -----> GValue

So does anyone know what it is I've done to cause this problem?
Thanks!
