It's normally part of a Perl install, but RH loves to break Perl by
installing only about half of it by default. `yum install perl-core` to get
a proper install.

Some parts of the p6 infrastructure are still written in Perl 5, for
bootstrapping purposes (i.e. you would have problems trying to install
rakudo if it needed an already installed rakudo in order to install or
first run).
