Other way around. "package" is Perl 5, because that's the P5 keyword,
and seeing a "package" declaration is an indicator to Perl6 that the
file it's processing is written in P5. In P6, there are both
"module"s and "class"es, but no "package"s other than those inherited
from P5 code..
Right. Thank you; I'm not sure how I got those flipped.
