  +When you build modules, use the PREFIX and LIB options when generating
   Makefiles:
   
  -    perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/u/mydir/perl
  +    perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/mydir/perl LIB=/mydir/perl/lib
   
   then either set the PERL5LIB environment variable before you run
   scripts that use the modules/libraries (see L<perlrun>) or say
   
  -    use lib '/u/mydir/perl';
  +    use lib '/mydir/perl/lib';
   
   This is almost the same as
   
       BEGIN {
  -	unshift(@INC, '/u/mydir/perl');
  +	unshift(@INC, '/mydir/perl/lib');
       }
   
   except that the lib module checks for machine-dependent subdirectories.
