To you Perl internals gurus...
 
So, we want to be able to install a full fledged copy of Perl along with our software, which uses Perl scripts and our own extensions.  The problem I'm seeing is that during Perl's configuration, it asks for your installation directory.  It appears that information is not just used in the make files, but gets put in Config.pm and config.h where its compiled into the code.
 
How do we modify the Perl installation directory path without recompiling the whole thing?  ActiveState distributes binaries of it, so there must be a way to do it, I just haven't found it.
 
Modifying Config.pm will be easy, since it's source (Perl) code, but what about the references derived from config.h in the binaries?  Are these overridden by Config.pm?
