Subject: Installation of ppport.h not needed
The PathTools module needlessly installs ppport.h under $Config{archlibexp}. To correct this, remove lib/ppport.h from the distribution and from MANIFEST.

Not sure what version RSOD was referring to, but it's been a year and a half since then and I'm pretty sure this got fixed.
