Yes, that explains it. Prefixification works by effectively doing:
my $installsitelib = $Config{installsitelib};
$installsitelib =~ s/$Config{prefix}/$your_prefix/;
Since your $Config{installsitelib} is not under your $Config{prefix} the
above s/// will fail. In that case MakeMaker falls back to a default which
is effectively "$your_prefix/lib/perl5/site_perl". This is the behavior
you are seeing and it is "correct" in as far as prefixation can be correct.

Ahh email, my old friend. Do you know that revenge is a dish that is best
