 How to use mod_perl6:
 
-1) Apply the modperl6 patch in the patches directory to the parrot source tree.
-2) Rebuild perl6.
+1) In the top level directory, type "make modperl6" to precompile mod_perl6.
+   This is not required, but it does provide a 10x improvement in startup time.
 3) In the Apache's envvars script:
    a) set PERL6LIB to the absolute path to languages/perl6/lib, or add it to
