Ok if we include MoreUtils we could use part which does what I wanted without an explicit while:

  DB<41> use List::MoreUtils "part"
 
  DB<42> $a=join " ",0..5
 
  DB<43> x part {my $i++/2} $a =~/(\w) (\w)/g
0  ARRAY(0x90c6430)
   0  0
   1  1
1  ARRAY(0x90c68a0)
   0  2
   1  3
2  ARRAY(0x90c68b0)
   0  4
   1  5

but after considering MoreUtils it's only a small step to define a specialized functional solution fold (&) on one's own...

grep { } fold { $a =~/(\w) (\w)/g }.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
