Well, on one hand, I don't have any measures, but I'd bet that 99% of
all Perl users on Windows platforms are using ActivePerl, as there
aren't that many binary packages around, so catering to that "minory"
shouldn't be a problem. A Perl user on Windows who's not using
ActivePerl probably is knowledgeable enough to move the files around
on his own.

OTOH, I'm not sure is easy to make a build process for the Perl
bindings that's shareable between ActivePerl and other Windows Perls.
AFAIK, the whole PPM/PPD issue is only used by ActivePerl (but I could
be wrong, PPD is in Open Sofware Description format,
http://www.w3.org/TR/NOTE-OSD).
