-D under linux means:

       -D     create all leading components of DEST except the last, then
              copy SOURCE to DEST; useful in the 1st format

This means if you install the first time, and eithe SYSBIN_DIR or `basename is not existing, it will be created on-the-fly from
the install program. If OSX does not support this, you somehow have to crate these subdirectories manually.
