Not unfortunately. I'm more than happy to learn about them if I
could only find somewhere where they are documented. But simply
saying "the documentation is on the Perl web site" as one poster
told me is less than useful. There seems to be very little on how 
to get rid of Perl in preparation for a clean install. And finding
where @INC is defined is obviously one of those well-hidden tricks
only to be revealed after much fasting and prayer :-)

It could be useful to document this at an early stage on the AxKit
site (unless I missed it).

Not to my knowledge.

Yep. Useful to know, thanks.

That too. But the current problem is getting a working Perl (that 
supports mod_perl *and* AxKit) to replace the current mix of RH9 RPM,
RH8 RPM, and source-built 5.8.0 which is the hard bit...and being
*sure* that there are no nasty undocumented funnies left hanging
around.
