Victor,

It is not LD_LIBRARY_PATH that needs to be set.  You will need to set
PERLLIB.

ie.	

$ perl -V
<snip> 
  @INC:
    /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.1/i686-linux
    /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.1
    /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/i686-linux
    /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1
    /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl
    .

$ export PERLLIB=/opt/myperllibs
$ perl -V
<snip> 
  @INC:
    /opt/myperlibs    <--- PERLLIB is pre-pended to the @INC Path.
    /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.1/i686-linux
    /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.1
    /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/i686-linux
    /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1
    /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl
    .

Therefore:  If you set PERLLIB in your profile, every perl instance will
use the same lib directory.

Hi!

I did it. I does not work :-( It seems that @INC dirs are 'hardcoded' 
into some define at compile time.
