| For example, I run this:
| 
| bash$ /home/foo/apps/perl/bin/perl -I/home/foo/apps/perl/lib -V
| [snippity-snip]
|   @INC:
|     /home/foo/apps/perl/lib/5.6.1/i686-linux
|     /home/foo/apps/perl/lib/5.6.1
|     /home/foo/apps/perl/lib
|     /usr/local/foo/apps/perl/lib/5.6.1/i686-linux
|     /usr/local/foo/apps/perl/lib/5.6.1
|     /usr/local/foo/apps/perl/lib/site_perl/5.6.1/i686-linux
|     /usr/local/foo/apps/perl/lib/site_perl/5.6.1
|     /usr/local/foo/apps/perl/lib/site_perl
|     .
| 
| bash$ /home/foo/apps/perl/bin/perl -I/home/foo/apps/perl/lib
| migration.pl -v
| Can't locate strict.pm in @INC (@INC contains:
| /usr/local/foo/apps/perl/lib/5.6.1/i686-linux
| /usr/local/foo/apps/perl/lib/5.6.1
| /usr/local/foo/apps/perl/lib/site_perl/5.6.1/i686-linux
| /usr/local/foo/apps/perl/lib/site_perl/5.6.1
| /usr/local/foo/apps/perl/lib/site_perl .) at migration.pl line 9.
| BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at migration.pl line 9.

I suspect the migrate.pl script is mucking with @INC in a BEGIN
block.

If it isn't, perhaps a rebuild of perl is in order :-)
