If you mean custom modules, it would be best to store them in site_perl. If
you have scripts that are for "universal" use they are best stored in a
standard location, the philosophy of which can vary between OSes and
implementations, but would likely be /usr/local/bin or /usr/bin. So I guess
my answer would be "system space".
