There are comments in the README "Please note that this release of Rakudo Star is *not* fully functional with the JVM backend from the Rakudo compiler. Use the JVM backend only if you are trying to help with fixing JVM support (which is best done upstream with the monthly Rakudo release). This is a known issue and it's not worth reporting JVM failures as bugs unless you have patches." The last time I tried it (and this was a while ago) I was able to build with JVM and run simple (dozen line) programs OK. But complex programs like zef didn't work and so installing modules wasn't possible. S
