I tried setting PERL5LIB from the .htaccess using mod_env, but mod_env 
isn't supported at my host.  Being a shared hosting environment, I 
obviously don't have access to recompile Perl to include my local_perl 
globally (nor would that be desireable even if I did).  The only way I 
could get this working was to add 'use lib' statements to the index.cgi.

All of the above would modify the @INC, but only the last one is 
supported on my host.  Do you know of any other ways?
