Chances are, the most popular implementations of Perl 6 will allow C 
bindings, just like Perl 5. Some, like Rakudo, will have both C and 
Parrot bindings. In this day, users do have a choice. A Rakudo user 
could install a module that uses C bindings, or he could install a 
module that is all Perl, or he could install a module that uses Parrot. 
There are perfectly valid reasons why he might choose one option or 
another. A SMOP user might install a module that uses C bindings, or one 
that is all Perl. There are valid reasons why he might want one or the 
other.
