Sort of exactly like PERL5LIB already does? $ PERL5LIB=p5lib:p5lib2 /home/nclark/Sandpit/5101g-clean/bin/perl -le 'print foreach @INC' p5lib/5.10.1/i686-linux p5lib/5.10.1 p5lib p5lib2/5.10.1/i686-linux p5lib2/5.10.1 p5lib2 /home/nclark/Sandpit/5101g-clean/lib/perl5/5.10.1/i686-linux /home/nclark/Sandpit/5101g-clean/lib/perl5/5.10.1 /home/nclark/Sandpit/5101g-clean/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.10.1/i686-linux /home/nclark/Sandpit/5101g-clean/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.10.1 . $ PERL5LIB=p5lib:p5lib2 /home/nclark/Sandpit/589g-clean/bin/perl -le 'print foreach @INC' p5lib/5.8.9/i686-linux p5lib/5.8.9 p5lib p5lib2/5.8.9/i686-linux p5lib2/5.8.9 p5lib2 /home/nclark/Sandpit/589g-clean/lib/perl5/5.8.9/i686-linux /home/nclark/Sandpit/589g-clean/lib/perl5/5.8.9 /home/nclark/Sandpit/589g-clean/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.9/i686-linux /home/nclark/Sandpit/589g-clean/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.9 . It's documented tersely in perlrun, but without an example.
