Actually, you're closer to the truth than Eliya is. The assignment is indeed conditional. Aside from the syntax error from missing parens, the problems both yours and Eliya share are: `1` is actually evaluated before anything else, `$x{a}` is only evaluated once, and `$x{a}` is (only) evaluated in lvalue context.
