: Thanks for pointing out that there are licensing issues with those implementations which are direct or indirect translations of R source code which (as the author of the Kotlin entry) had escaped me.

: Fortunately, I believe the Perl 6 entry to be an original work. It is much more concise than any of the offending entries, predated the Perl entry and looks nothing like the C code. Moreover, it makes use of features (Schwartzian transforms and the Šidák correction method) which the others lack.

: I think the problem could therefore be solved if the offending entries were eventually replaced by direct or indirect translations of the Perl 6 code. To start the ball rolling I've added a second Kotlin version (q.v.).

: The results are the same except for the Šidák method. I'm no expert in this area so may have made a mistake but, from what I've read, this is a simple 'one-step' correction method (similar to but more optimistic than Bonferonni) whereas the Perl 6 code seems to be doing something more complicated.
