This patch switches languages/perl6 over to using CPS. It isn't a
complete and final solution, just a step in the right direction. My goal
was to make the smallest number of code changes possible to get it to
work. 

Switching to the current calling conventions fixed 4 out of 5 failing
tests with calls to closures and rules (t/compiler/2.t 3-5, and
t/rx/basic.t 6). The remaining test (t/compiler/1.t 15) fails because
some architectures return "inf" instead of "Inf" when dividing by zero.
Eventually, division by zero should probably throw an exception, so I'm
ignoring this for now.
