Issue #19392 has been updated by yui-knk (Kaneko Yuichiro).
JFYI: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/8054 doesn't change the precedence globally,
however `def test = puts("foo") or puts("bar")` is interrupted as `def
test = (puts("foo") or puts("bar"))`.

Ghinda:
```ruby
def test = puts("foo") and puts("bar")
# prints "bar" immediately
test
# prints "foo"
```
It seems that it is a parser error, right?..
```ruby
RubyVM::AbstractSyntaxTree.parse('def test = puts("foo") and
puts("bar")')
# =>
# (SCOPE@1:0-1:38
# tbl: []
# args: nil
# body:
# (AND@1:0-1:38
# (DEFN@1:0-1:22
# mid: :test
# body:
# (SCOPE@1:0-1:22
# tbl: []
# args:
# (ARGS@1:0-1:8 pre_num: 0 pre_init: nil opt: nil first_post: nil post_num: 0
post_init: nil rest: nil kw: nil kwrest: nil block: nil)
# body: (FCALL@1:11-1:22 :puts (LIST@1:16-1:21 (STR@1:16-1:21 "foo")
nil))))
# (FCALL@1:27-1:38 :puts (LIST@1:32-1:37 (STR@1:32-1:37 "bar") nil))))
```
E.g. it is parsed as
```ruby
(def test = puts("foo")) and (puts("bar"))
```
...which is hardly intentional or have any practical use. The rightly parsed code in this
case _can_ have practical use, like
```ruby
def write(data) = File.write(@filename, data) == data.size or raise "Something went
wrong"
```
