2 copies of perl includes?


I was searching for a perl module.   "Locate" turned up 2 copies in:

/lib/perl/5.6.1

   and

/lib/perl/5.6.1/cygwin-multi

There are 469 identical objects between the two directories, 75 extra objects
in "cygwin-multi", with only the parent's "pod" directory missing from the
cygwin-multi dir.

Perl array "INC" has 'cygwin-multi' first, then the 5.6.1 version --
but since, except for 'pod', cygwin-multi is a strict superset, it would seem
like one of the copies shouldn't exist?  

Do I need both copies or is one a left-over mistake that didn't get
removed during an upgrade?

Thanks,
Linda
