Should I just put /home/kdo/perlmods in my @INC on every system?
personally I would recommend that you
read the perldoc h2xs and just step
on down the lane.
This way one puts together a CPAN style
Package that will simplify the process
all the way around the board.
If you are not the 'perl person' who
can install the module in the canonical
site_local section with the
        perl Makefile.PL
        make
        make test
        make install
then the strategy that I recommend is
that you make your scripts that are
contingent on it to use the simple strategy
of being put in
	$ENV{HOME}/bin

with a uselib line of

	$ENV{HOME}/lib/perl5

then use your installer with the offset
values to install it there.
Haul around one distribution and it will
work for all of your 'user names' on
all of the machines.
