Quick, what does this method return:

^[.]value
I'm writing compiler tests for CorruptVM/Moebius (tests that can then also be used with Squeak's compiler and NewCompiler) and want to include these two cases as well.
mmm.. i think this test case is not qualifying anything. i'd rather test following:
^ [42] value vs ^ [42 . ] value
A period is designating an end of expression , right? For me its more interesting, why in ["empty"] blocks returns nil, but [ 42. "empty" ] block returns 42.
Because the . after the final statement in a block or method is optional.
Thank you Bert, James and Igor :) Now it's clear what the test has to be about.
