No. Or at least not yet. Perl 6 is not even remotely compatible with Perl 5, so there is no way to switch between the two versions of Perl to run the same script. In the future it might be possible to provide multiple versions of Perl 6 and switch between those (I'm not sure if we want that, but who knows). We could talk about improvements of port select for perl 5, but perl 6 is still relatively far from that. > My installation of perl_select has been a bit flaky.

You could file individual bug reports on Trac in cases when calling perl5.18 doesn't do the job for you for example, even though "port select" is not quite ready yet and we might use a different approach completely. I'm not sure if implementing port select for perl is even feasible.
