I meant Tk's JP.t and KR.t (Which _display_ copies of the same data files 
that Encode uses/used.)

One can arrange to install things almost anywhere - with enough MM overrides.

I am _NOT suggesting this is right thing to do but Tk itself 
installs its .h files via:

sub MY::post_initialize
{
 ...
 $dir = $self->catdir('$(INST_ARCHLIBDIR)','pTk');
 push(@{$self->{'dir_targets'}},$dir);
 foreach $name (sort(@{$self->{H}},keys %files))
  {
   $self->{PM}->{$name} = $self->catfile($dir,$name);
  }
 ...
}

I have no idea (not having done a Tk install recently) if that still 
works with new MM.

Hmm, project for ptked - spell check in a POD-aware manner ;-)
