For any arbitrary module, doing

  use Foo::Bar @list;

is the same as doing

  BEGIN {
    require Foo::Bar;
    Foo::Bar->import(@list);
  }

, so the standard "use Inline 'C';" is equivalent to

  BEGIN {
    require Inline;
    Inline->import('C');
  }

.  In your case, you just put a little code in between the require() and
the
import().
