Description
A variadic argument may be quoted or evaluative (like any other argument).
If it is evaluative, then a TAKE that returned NULL could mean two things: either there was source material that evaluated to NULL -or- there was no more input to be gathered.
This inherent ambiguity suggests it's not clear that TAKE is a perfect operation for getting a variadic argument...or at least not one that is evaluative. The new behavior of EVAL(UATE) might be preferable, and restrict TAKE to quoted arguments only (though soft-quoted arguments straddle this definition).
In any case, these tests broke when TAKE was changed to return NULL without use of a special TAKE*:
left-normal: enfixed right-normal:
func [return: [<opt> word!] x [word! <...>]] [take x]
(error? trap [| left-normal])
(error? trap [right-normal |])
The issue requires some consideration. This consideration might mean that VARARGS! has distinct operators for dealing with it (?)
For now this test is commented out.
