Thanks.
Didn't know about PERL5LIB but when it looked it up in the Cookbook its the perfect & 
easy solution. 
I just put 
        export PERL5LIB=$RGSE/lib
into my .bashrc file and now there is no longer a need to use:
        perl -I${RGSE}/lib myprogram.pl
to run the program. I can just do:
        myprogram.pl
instead.

It does seem that:
        use Env qw(RGSE);
        use lib "$ENV{RGSE}/lib";
should also work though. Works fine as a 2 line program, as Bob Showalter suggested.
So for whatever reason, $ENV{RGSE} is not properly defined in my more complex program.
Some debugging to do if I want to use that method!
