 Cuse syntax
 

[ ... ]

 =head1 ABSTRACT
 
 A pragma to modify the syntax of Perl 6 at run time. Oh yes.
 

[...]

 =head1 IMPLEMENTATION
 
 First, implement 314. Then construct grammars for what we want to parse,
 and ensure that the parser is flexible enough to allow them as alternate
 grammars.
 
 =head1 REFERENCES
 
 RFC 314

Hmm... maybe this belongs in perl6-stdlib since it's talking about a
library. Other than that I like it. (For "Oh my ghod that's sick yet
strangely cute" values of 'like')

I briefly considered

{
use syntax "python";
}

and nearly lost my lunch.

And if you want to lose your breakfast too, consider:
use "lisp";
use "apl";

(Although if the array-processing and currying RFCs are accepted, Perl will
finally have powers beyond those of APL without having to relearn that
annoying (lack of) syntax...)
