$ perl -e "print(join(""\n"",@INC,''))"

Bingo; the unixy one does not occur in 5.005_03.  Also, with 5.005_03:

$  perl -e "print (-d '/perl_root/lib/site_perl' ? 'Yep' : 'Nope');"
Yep
$ dir perl_root:[lib]site_perl.dir

Directory PERL_ROOT:[LIB]

SITE_PERL.DIR;1

Total of 1 file.

but with 5.6.0 RC 1 (Charles B.'s recent test kit):

$ perl -e "print (-d '/perl_root/lib/site_perl' ? 'Yep' : 'Nope');"
Nope
$ dir perl_root:[lib]site_perl.dir
%DIRECT-W-NOFILES, no files found

This Perl has not been installed; I just pointed perl_root at the build directory.  
OK, the "Bingo" was premature since I don't know what all this means, but it seems we 
are getting warmer.
