Hi Brian!

I think that's right.  Those the directories which are referenced in the binary,  I know the generic upstream perl source process has always created them,  but they're not included in the current cygwin package.   As a total guess, empty directories are maybe now being elided in the cygwin packaging process?

% strings - /bin/cygperl5_30.dll  | grep /usr/local
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.30/x86_64-cygwin-threads

% cygcheck -p site_perl
Found 4 matches for site_perl

Marco,  I have no idea how to interpret that statement constructively.
