binary paths what we're already doing for library paths, in the core
perl distribution?=C2=BB

I didn't want to go that route because it would have loaded Config.pm
in every process (not a big deal but annoying)

Instead I patched Config.pm itself, after building perl but before
tar-ing it up:

I replace `sub FETCH {` with:

```
sub FETCH {
    my ($self, $key) =3D @_;
    my $v =3D $self->_orig_fetch($key);
    return undef unless defined $v;
    my $replacement =3D ($^X =3D~ s{/bin/perl$}{}r);
    $v =3D~ s{/path/to/where/I/built/perl\b}{$replacement}g;
    return $v;
}
sub _orig_fetch {
```
