Both the BEGIN/unshift and 'use lib' techniques expect a single
directory, not colon separated directories.
BEGIN {
unshift @INC,
'/home/taylorp/perlmodules',
'/home/taylorp/perlmodules/i386-linux';
}
OR
use lib '/home/taylorp/perlmodules';
use lib '/home/taylorp/perlmodules/i386-linux';
(Actually, the first use lib statement will automatically include the
second directory (and more) provided that the structure under perlmodules
is similiar with the standard library directory structure).
The -I was designed to work in Unix sense, like PATH and MANPATH for
example, you define one or more directories separeted by colon.
