This looks like it should work by reading perl.c but that is the only
place in the Perl infrastructure that that works.

Note what happens when we go to installperl  (make install):
(From the last few lines)
  cp pod/perlwin32.pod 
/usr/local/scratch1/darren/debian/perl/perl-5.6-5.6.0/debian/tmp/usr/lib/perl5/5.6:/usr/lib/perl5/pod/perlwin32.pod
  cp pod/perlxs.pod 
/usr/local/scratch1/darren/debian/perl/perl-5.6-5.6.0/debian/tmp/usr/lib/perl5/5.6:/usr/lib/perl5/pod/perlxs.pod
  cp pod/perlxstut.pod 
/usr/local/scratch1/darren/debian/perl/perl-5.6-5.6.0/debian/tmp/usr/lib/perl5/5.6:/usr/lib/perl5/pod/perlxstut.pod

installperl treats archlib as a directory rather than as a path and does
dumb things.  I investigated this way of doing things before.
