IS a Perl 6. Right now the program that passes the most tests and
conforms most closely to the specification is Rakudo.

[Indirect object][1] notation is still in Perl 6; it just got an
unambiguous syntax:
print $filehandle: "Hello world";

Perl 6 just has lots of short cuts that make them nicer. Like the ^ twigil:
my $lambda = { say "hello $^name" };
$lambda("world");

It looks like array dereferencers don't interpolate currently in
double quotish strings, so you were trying to look up '@a[0]' in the
hash. This is likely a bug a Rakudo. I think S02 says that "@a[0]"
should be interpolated and that &q
e.g., of the form ".‽method") for calling
