That's because there's not a single mention of it in the 6.c Perl 6 Language Specification[^1] and we don't document unspecced things. Personally, I rather leave it that way for now, until we get a chance to revamp our IO API (which very likely won't be possible until 6.d language release). Passing those strings for $test is pretty inflexible and bug prone and I rather see us toss that sort of API from chdir; and the fewer things rely on its current behaviour the better.
