Module: B
Description
The B module implements a string() method for core UNOP_AUX ops, producing an argument string that summarises the contents of the auxiliary vector.
There is no such handling for multiparam.
Steps to Reproduce
Most obvious in B::Concise output:
$ ./perl -Ilib -MO=Concise,f -e 'use v5.42.0; sub f($x) { }'
main::f:
4 <1> leavesub[1 ref] K/REFC,1 ->(end)
- <1> ex-argcheck KP/1 ->4
- <@> lineseq K ->-
1 <;> nextstate(main 5 -e:1) :us,*,&,$,fea=9,0x10 ->2
2 <+> multiparam() ->3
3 <;> nextstate(main 5 -e:1) :us,*,&,$,fea=9,0x10 ->4
-e syntax OK
Expected behavior
B::UNOP_AUX::string() should summarise the details of the OP.
