That's very cool. I've begun similar work but couldn't find the time 
to progress.

I have a may be naive question: Is there anything preventing using multiarch 
on libmoar just like any other lib ?

Yes. I will sponsor your packages.

Could you (if not already done):
- file an ITP bug for moar:
  https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/pkgs.en.html#newpackage
- create an account on alioth (to get access to the git repos):
  https://alioth.debian.org/
- request membership to pkg-rakudo team:
  https://alioth.debian.org/project/request.php?group_id=100623
- upload your work on alioth. You can follow a process similar to:
  http://pkg-perl.alioth.debian.org/git.html#b__alternative__the_long_story
  (the dpt tool mentioned won't work for rakudo repo, so you'll have to use 
  manual commands)

Then reviewing your work will be much easier for me.

Feel free to contact me on IRC (dod) if you have question. I usually hang 
on #debian-perl channel.

Thanks for your help
