The README in that directory states:

    Status
    ======
    This prototype of the perl6 compiler was abandoned in June 2004. Current
    work on the compiler may be found in the development of the Pugs
    prototype (www.pugscode.org) and in the Parrot grammar engine (PGE) in
    the Parrot repository at compilers/pge. You can track the development of
    both on the perl6-compiler mailing list (perl6-compiler@perl.org).

Pugs, however, does work:

    $ ./pugs -e 'say "perl 6"'
    perl 6
    $ ./pugs -B PIR -e 'say "perl 6 (via parrot)"'
    perl 6 (via parrot)
    $ perl perl5/PIL2JS/runjs.pl -e 'say "perl 6 (via javascript)"'
    perl 6 (via javascript)
