  Description     : virtual machine for Rakudo Perl 6 and NQP

Short for “Metamodel On A Runtime”, MoarVM is a virtual machine built
especially for Rakudo Perl 6 and the NQP Compiler Toolchain.

The goal is to provides nqp and rakudo with this second backend and let
the user choose which one she prefers using alternatives.

I manage to build the moarvm binary and its libmoar packages in AMD64
and i386 schroots.

I manually build the NQP 2014.05 in a schroot using my moarvm deb and
the nqp test suite pass:

    All tests successful.
    Files=90, Tests=3260, 19 wallclock secs ( 0.46 usr  0.07 sys + 18.08
        cusr  1.20 csys = 19.81 CPU)
    Result: PASS

You can find the first draft of packaging on my git repository[1].

Regards.
