Actually I call it a feature ;-)

the Makefile is generated by Makefile.PL (which in turn calls
Configure.pl), just like with any "normal" Perl package - the difference
is just that in this case Makefile.PL lives in the parrot root dir, not
in languages/perl6/

Maybe a symlink in languages/perl6/ to parrot's Makefile.PL could help?

(Just out of curiosity, do you need 'make realclean' in
languages/perl6/? Most of the time a simple 'make' works for me, or a
'make clean'. I never needed realclean in Rakudo, only in parrot so far).
