PerlSetEnv PERL5LIB works fine for me, and should work regardless of
PerlTaintCheck, because mod_perl treats it special (note for the guide,
stas).
mod_perl-x.xx/t/conf/httpd.conf has this config:
<Location /perl/perl-status>
PerlSetVar StatusOptionsAll On
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler +Apache::Status
PerlSetEnv PERL5LIB /home/dougm/lib/perl
</Location>
which i can see as the last @INC entry printed by:
/perl-status?inc
