# This is the Perl 6 Grammar used to Parse and generate the
# Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) for Perl 6 primitives - fglock
#
# This code is compiled and executed by using the previously
# compiled version, which is stored in "$filename-cached.pl"
#
# Things that go in this file are:
# - anything that contains a statement like:
#       eval( '...', :lang<perl5>);
# - anything that is too low-level to go into a real Module
# - anything that does not directly alters the Perl 6 Grammar
#   (these go into the p6prelude.p6 file)
