Eh?  blibdirs_target() replaced all the stuff dir_target() did.  I deleted
dir_target() in 6.18 because MakeMaker didn't need it.  I put dir_target() 
back only because things like Tk and libwin32 call it directly.  So its
only there for backwards compatibility.  MakeMaker doesn't use it itself
anymore.

Also, everything inherits from MM_Unix.  Even non-Unix.  See:
