Top level await has unexpected results in the repl:

> console.log(await Deno.stat("."));
// Waits forever...

The cause of this is that feeding the above line to evalContext (plainly a binding to create script and eval under the current context) yields the surprising error SyntaxError: missing ) after argument list, thus REPL assumes that there needs more input and waits.

This might be an upstream issue of V8.
