I am not sure what is "normal".  

I am running on "standard issue" RHEL install from my company's IT dept. I (and 
they) don't know if they have changed anything that would break the normally 
accepted assumptions.

I can verify that:
- perl and python are installed (according to instmodsh)
- /tools/.. and /usr/.. have different versions, not clear if this matters.


[root@lab-sj1-140 ~]# /usr/local/bin/perl --version
This is perl 5, version 14, subversion 1 (v5.14.1) built for 
x86_64-linux-thread-multi

[root@lab-sj1-140 ~]# /tools/local/bin/perl --version
This is perl, v5.8.8 built for i686-linux

[root@lab-sj1-140 ~]# /usr/bin/python --version
Python 2.6.6

[root@lab-sj1-140 ~]# /tools/bin/python --version
Python 2.7.1


thx,
Kishore
