Ok, so there will be pugs, perl -Mv6 and rakudo | parrot-perl6
Maybe both /usr/bin/rakudo and /usr/bin/perl6 should be symlinked to
/usr/bin/parrot-perl6 then.
Currently there's only a /usr/bin/perl6 being installed.
This really should be made ready for the September release.

Good idea.
Within the PCT::HLLCompiler I assume.
So the few languages which are not based upon PCT::HLLCompiler will
need some minor trickery.

Question I have which may be addressed somewhere already. Based on a
quick skim of the sample config file:
If I want to run my config based on the contents of a file, how do I
get the ordered lists of steps to run? Can I assume a sane default or
must I be explicit?
If the file/list is coming from a configure run, is there a way to
cope with the order of steps changing between various versions of
Configure? or will I have to manually re-apply my changes if that
happens? (easier to avoid if there are sane defaults)
