make rakudo-test only took 45s for me. I don't have the right TAP
Harness extension to run spectest. I could add it easily to my
bleadperl, but it's easier to add libperl-dev to bin/perl, Choices.

Rakudo isn't quite ready for the APL matrix computation of primes, and
streams ('feeds') and 'is cached' aren't quite ready for a recursive
definition, but I adapted to what's available.
