I decided do go back to Druid and Web.pm (the ones that got stuck on the Configure stage) and do some extra digging. Here's what i found.
Druid fails to compile because it uses the type name Match. This type is not known by Rakudo master, despite being all over the synopses. It's the consequence of mostly good refactorings in the underlying parser, and a known issue [perl.org].
Web.pm tactlessly mentions Object when it should have said Mu, of course. Hiding behind that faux pas was another frivolous "Placeholder variables" error.
