Yes, the Minigrace behaviour here is not correct (based on previous email
discussions we've already had about this). The request for 'apply' on the block
in the for() do() method should complain that it has been passed too many
arguments. You should do either this:

  for (1..3) do { _ ->
    print 5
  }

Or something like this:

  method do(count) times(block) {
    for (1..count) do { _ ->
      block.apply
    }
  }

  do 3 times {
    print 5
  }
