Actually no, from the PIO routines you should return a PMC

Hey. Leo suggested to me on #parrot to drop a note on p6i,
asking about obtaining the committer to the Parrot tree.
As some of you know, Pugs can now evaluate PIR via an embedded
Parrot interpreter:

as well as compiling Perl 6 to PIR, evaluating it in memor

If I understand correctly, so far we have the following meta-operators:

I've found the problem with "make test" not working. The problem is
the pathname not being cygpath'ed. Basically, every call to
