Thanks for running the check !!

But where does the site/bin directory come from?

For my AS build of perl-5.14, I have: 
C:\>perl -V:installsitebin
installsitebin='C:\_32\ap1400\site\bin';

C:\>perl -V:installsitescript
installsitescript='C:\_32\ap1400\site\bin';

C:\>perl -V:sitebin
sitebin='C:\_32\ap1400\site\bin';

C:\>perl -V:sitebinexp
sitebinexp='C:\_32\ap1400\site\bin';

C:\>

[download]
So, if perl/site/bin is not there from the start, I guess it gets created whenever a module wants to install something into either installsitebin, installsitescript, sitebin, or sitebinexp.
I expect that ppm will install anything that's cound in blib/script into whatever is specified by $Config{installsitescript}.

Bit of a pity that the AS builds specify that config setting. (My MinGW build specifies nothing for installsitescript, and specifies perl/bin for installsitebin.)

Cheers,
Rob
