Odd question, and me without any perl books nearby: Is set a perl
command or key word or reserved word or whatever? I seem to be able to use
it as a subroutine name in perl5, but I wasn't sure if it had any other
meaning to the parser. The question would extend into perl 6, if anyone is
familiary

That implies no.
They let you
I don't see how it could be, given the need for get/set accessors in OOP.
