Yeah, "Scripts" is indeed Windows specific - which I admit I had 
forgotten until a couple of hours ago when debugging why a script using 
virtualenv failed on Windows due to assuming stuff went into a 'bin' 
directory and not the 'Scripts' directory.  The directory is normally 
populated by the distutils 'install' command, easy_install, etc
