in thread UTF-8 characters in variable names: some characters are not allowed

That's correct - I just wish the error message was clearer. It says "Malformed UTF-8 character" even though the file is valid UTF-8. I'll open search the perl RT, and open a ticket if none is open already.

Update: I didn't find an open ticket for it, so I opened a new one.

Perl 6 - links to (nearly) everything that is Perl 6.

    I didn't clue into that. Yeah, that's not an appropriate error message.
