If you hard-code it to install in /usr/local/bin, then it won't work for
users who don't have permission to write there. For example, at work I
have a ~/perl-5.8.8/bin directory, which is in my path. And that's
where scripts get installed from the CPAN. CPAN.pm is responsible for
telling EU::MM / M::B where to put stuff.
