I think my testscripts "mess" with @INC, but I am not sure if this is a 
problem (I generally test modules only manually, not with in some 
test-framework)

I have no idea how I could even replicate this except setting up complete 
testing-framework, which I lack the time to do.

One thing that might be special is that Math::BigInt is a core-module, and 
so needs to overwrite a already existing core module upon install. If you 
install it into the "site" dir instead of "perl", the old core would still 
get loaded first.

And v1.80 of Math::BigInt now uses Module::Install, so this might have 
something to do with that, but I am not sure.

All the best,
