Details

As part of a VariableDeclaration, it works fine: var {a} = {a:1}; a; 1 But not as an AssignmentExpression: {a} = {a:1}; a; SyntaxError: syntax error
Blocks: es6
{a} = {a: 1}; a; is a block statement whose single kid is the expression |a|, followed by a stray = that should generate a SyntaxError (and then the rest is irrelevant). Is there a bug at all here if the assignment is enclosed in parentheses?
Hm, right. Putting it in parentheses solves the problem. Sorry for the inconvenience.
