Yes, I believe this is actually expected behavior.  I had the same "wth" moment
when doing some testing on my laptop a while ago, until I dug around and found
this in "perldoc perlrun" which explains what's up:

       PERL5LIB    A list of directories in which to look for Perl library
                   files before looking in the standard library and the cur-
                   rent directory.  Any architecture-specific directories
                   under the specified locations are automatically included if
                   they exist.  If PERL5LIB is not defined, PERLLIB is used.
                   Directories are separated (like in PATH) by a colon on
                   unixish platforms and by a semicolon on Windows (the proper
                   path separator being given by the command "perl
                   -V:path_sep").

                   When running taint checks (either because the program was
                   running setuid or setgid, or the -T switch was used), nei-
                   ther variable is used.  The program should instead say:

                       use lib "/my/directory";

So the installed "spamassassin", etc, all use taint mode, so PERL5LIB is 
ignored.
