That statement is probably even closer to the truth than you think :).  
See

     http://svn.openfoundry.org/pugs/modules/SHA1/lib/SHA1.pm

(note the use of 'inline Haskell' there ...), which wraps the SHA1 
Haskell module:

     http://svn.openfoundry.org/pugs/modules/SHA1/src/SHA1.hs

Perl 6 is indeed looking like something to phear, with a ph.  It may be 
some of the best publicity that Haskell's ever got.
