If you ask nicely (Score:1)

A Perl6 grammar that looks like it might parse CLU. Useless until Perl6::Rules gets released.
Matthijs van Duin [cpan.org] has written an alpha version of a perl6 grammar -> perl5 regexp translator and if you ask nicely I'm sure he'll be happy to share. Good luck with CLU!

  Running my alpha rules on an alpha translator. Heh.
  
  I'll stick with Parse::RecDescent for the parser for now. It mostly works, ignoring the bugs I haven't found yet. There's one spot where I mangled the grammar to remove left recursion, but I don't think it changed the semantics.
