what is it doing instead? it's really hard to analyse (let alone fix) a "it doesn't work"-problem, esp. if the author believes that it does work (so the problem seems to be on "your" side (e.g. on a platform that hasn't been tested yet). please be detailed in what you get.
for what it is worth: i tested the "suggest per-user directory and create if neccessary" feature on both linux and W32, and it does work nicely¹ and as expected².

¹ the main issue with W32 is, that if I extracted the Pd-zip myself (into %ProgramFiles%), i keep write-permissions on the embedded extra/ folder. thus deken will suggest to install into the application-specific search path (since it is allowed to write there). it correctly suggests %AppData%\Pd if I ungrant write-permissions to the extra/ folder. i haven't tested with the Pd-installer.
² it meets *my* expectations (and - according to an IRC chat - roman's as well). probably your expectations are different.
