tl;dr; - it worked, after a little fiddling w/ execstack on libmoar.so (remove executable stack flag).
Just got the bash/linux extensions beta installed on win10 and so I tried rakudo using: $ sudo perl Configure.pl --gen-moar --prefix /mnt/opt/rakudo-star-2016.11 didn't think it would work but that goes along happily until: ... /usr/bin/perl -MExtUtils::Command -e cp 3rdparty/dyncall/dynload/*.h /mnt/opt/rakudo-star-2016.10ls/include/dyncall /usr/bin/perl -MExtUtils::Command -e cp 3rdparty/dyncall/dyncall/*.h /mnt/opt/rakudo-star-2016.10ls/include/dyncall /usr/bin/perl -MExtUtils::Command -e cp 3rdparty/dyncall/dyncallback/*.h /mnt/opt/rakudo-star-2016.10ls/include/dyncall Building NQP ... /usr/bin/perl Configure.pl --prefix=/mnt/opt/rakudo-star-2016.11 --backends=moar --make-install Creating tools/build/install-jvm-runner.pl ... /mnt/opt/rakudo-star-2016.11/bin/moar: error while loading shared libraries: libmoar.so: cannot enable executable stack as shared object requires: Invalid argument ===SORRY!=== No suitable MoarVM (moar executable) found using the --prefix (You can get a MoarVM built automatically with --gen-moar.)

Found: https://github.com/Microsoft/BashOnWindows/issues/286 and install execstack and running $ sudo execstack -c /mnt/opt/rakudo-star-2016.11/lib/libmoar.so gets moar to run and on to "make" which works though it finishes ...

After that, 'make test' will run some tests and 'make install' will install Rakudo. and after make works, "make test" gets andy@ANDY-HP:~/src/rakudo-star-2016.11$ make test To run the Rakudo compiler tests, use 'make rakudo-test' To run the Perl 6 spectests, use 'make rakudo-spectest' To run the modules' test suites, run 'make modules-test' spectest gives: andy@ANDY-HP:~/src/rakudo-star-2016.11$ sudo make rakudo-spectest cd rakudo && make spectest make[1]: Entering directory `/home/andy/src/rakudo-star-2016.11/rakudo' cd t/spec && git pull --ff-only fatal: Not a git repository (or any parent up to mount point /home) Stopping at filesystem boundary (GIT_DISCOVERY_ACROSS_FILESYSTEM not set). make[1]: [spectest_update] Error 128 (ignored) /usr/bin/perl t/harness5 --fudge --moar --keep-exit-code --tests-from-file=t/sp Inline::Perl5 not installed: not running Perl 5 integration tests Missing test file: t/spec/S02-magicals/GROUP.t Missing test file: t/spec/S02-magicals/USER.t Missing test file: t/spec/S02-one-pass-parsing/misc.t Missing test file: t/spec/S02-types/baggy.t Missing test file: t/spec/S02-types/mu.t Missing test file: t/spec/S03-binding/nonsense.t Missing test file: t/spec/S04-exceptions/exceptions-json.t Missing test file: t/spec/S05-modifier/samemark.t Missing test file: t/spec/S05-syntactic-categories/new-symbols.t Missing test file: t/spec/S06-operator-overloading/circumfix.t Missing test file: t/spec/S06-operator-overloading/infix.t Missing test file: t/spec/S06-operator-overloading/prefix.t Missing test file: t/spec/S07-iterators/range-iterator.t Missing test file: t/spec/S09-typed-arrays/native-str.t Missing test file: t/spec/S11-modules/module.t Missing test file: t/spec/S11-modules/module-file.t Missing test file: t/spec/S12-construction/destruction.t Missing test file: t/spec/S12-construction/TWEAK.t Missing test file: t/spec/S15-string-types/NF-types.t Missing test file: t/spec/S15-string-types/NFK-types.t Missing test file: t/spec/S16-filehandles/misc.t Missing test file: t/spec/S16-filehandles/mode.t Missing test file: t/spec/S16-io/eof.t Missing test file: t/spec/S16-io/handles-between-threads.t Missing test file: t/spec/S16-io/quoting-syntax.t Missing test file: t/spec/S17-lowlevel/semaphore.t Missing test file: t/spec/S17-procasync/encoding.t Missing test file: t/spec/S17-supply/return-in-tap.t Missing test file: t/spec/S19-command-line-options/04-negation.t Missing test file: t/spec/S19-command-line-options/05-delimited-options.t Missing test file: t/spec/S19-command-line-options/06-dash-rxtrace.t Missing test file: t/spec/S24-testing/7-bail_out.t Missing test file: t/spec/S24-testing/8-die_on_fail.t Missing test file: t/spec/S24-testing/9-is_deeply.t Missing test file: t/spec/S26-documentation/07a-tables-todo-skipped.t Missing test file: t/spec/S29-any/deg-trans.t Missing test file: t/spec/S32-basics/pairup.t Missing test file: t/spec/S32-container/buf.t Missing test file: t/spec/S32-hash/map.t Missing test file: t/spec/S32-io/open.t Missing test file: t/spec/S32-io/socket-accept-and-working-threads.t Missing test file: t/spec/S32-list/categorize-list.t Missing test file: t/spec/S32-list/classify-list.t Missing test file: t/spec/S32-list/cross.t Missing test file: t/spec/S32-list/deepmap.t Missing test file: t/spec/S32-list/duckmap.t Missing test file: t/spec/S32-list/first-end-kv.t Missing test file: t/spec/S32-list/first-kv.t Missing test file: t/spec/S32-str/parse-base.t ...
