I never noticed that before, but the INSTALLSCRIPT directory doesn't
change, while all other dirs (notably INSTALL.*BIN) change when

To me that looks like a bug. Does anyone know why it was made that way ?
Nope. INSTALLBIN used to be that way, too, when I picked up MakeMaker.

* Added new INSTALL targets:
INSTALLSITEBIN
INSTALLSITEMAN1DIR INSTALLSITEMAN3DIR
INSTALLVENDORMAN1DIR INSTALLVENDORMAN3DIR
INSTALLVENDORBIN INSTALLVENDORLIB INSTALLVENDORARCH
SITEPREFIX VENDORPREFIX
I think I didn't do INSTALLSCRIPT at the same time because I was lazy and the
implementation was significantly nastier back then.
Here a patch to fix this.
Of course, it's not backwards-compatible, but it's more correct.
Any objections from the MakeMaker side ?
Why do you feel its not backwards compatible?
