What's going on here with my freshly compiled perl?

I compiled perl with a relocatable @INC as follows:

$ sh Configure -des -D prefix=~/perl -Duserelocatableinc

After I set up my path etc I get the following:

$ perl -e 'use strict; print "ok"'
Can't locate strict.pm in @INC (@INC contains: ../lib/site_perl/5.12.4/darwin-2level ../lib/site_perl/5.12.4 ../lib/5.12.4/darwin-2level ../lib/5.12.4 .) at -e line 1.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at -e line 1.

If I do this though, everything it's all OK?

$ `which perl` -e 'use strict; print "ok"'

Have I done something wrong? This is on OS X.

Here's the output for perl -V:

$ perl -V
Can't locate Config.pm in @INC (@INC contains:     ../lib/site_perl/5.12.4/darwin-2level ../lib/site_perl/5.12.4     ../lib/5.12.4/darwin-2level ../lib/5.12.4 .).
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.

$ `which perl` -V

OK, found a bug report:

Do you get anything for perl -V? Using the capital V shows the version and the compilation options, including the @INC directories. Ensure those directories are where the modules are.

Also note that in prefix, you're nominating the directory for installation, so perl should be in ~/perl/bin/perl. Is that the perl you are running? I wouldn't expect which to find that unless you have already adjusted your PATH.

I can't imagine a scenario where you would rather precompile the Perl interpreter with a new @INC path rather than just setting it into the environment or establishing it in the Perl script itself.

Compiling a new lib path into Perl seems excessive and fragile.

I think you're much better off passing it as an argument:

PERL5LIB="/my/new/path":$PERL5LIB /path/to/my/script.pl

or inside the script itself, since you already know the path required:

push(@INC, "/my/new/path");
