Ah, I just noticed something else. If I *am* running a startup script
that 'use's modules that are in my PERL5LIB, I must do 'use lib', or the
script fails to load them. So 'PerlSetEnv PERL5LIB' is pretty much
useless (because not sufficient and redundant to 'use lib') in this
case.
That's probably normal and to-be-expected, but it would be nice if it
were actually documented.
