Thanks for the warning.  I was aware.  I picture a lot of SKIP tests.
I'm hoping that some particular missing case will be simple enough
that it'll be a motivator for me to dive into perl6 implementation,
but if all I get through is translating even part of the Literals spec
into some SKIP/TODO tests, that'll still be some progress.
