Here's a two-liner to start off with:

	#`(
	BEGIN { exec "perl6", $0, @ARGV; die $!; } )

(Delimited comment syntax hides the whole BEGIN block from Perl 6, whereas
Perl 5 will execute it.)  This can also be combined with the shell hack:

	#`(
	eval 'exec perl6 "$0" ${1+"$@"}';
	BEGIN { exec "perl6", $0, @ARGV; die $!; } )

(Shell executes the eval statement straight away; Perl 5 compiles it to
an eval op, but the BEGIN means it never gets round to executing it.)
