And? Why wouldn't that still work? C<no 11;>
Do we really need to allow "Perl 5" code to say C<no 6;> to indicate
it doesn't run on "Perl 6"?
Is anyone still pretending Perl 5 is the same language as Perl 6?
They're different language and they run on different interpreters.
Let's keep "no" for Perl 5's use.
If we really need to deny Perl 6, I'm sure there are other ways to do
it with less impact on options for bumping Perl 5's version schema.
