Our development team has a clash of environment variables the other day.  To
manage a local library I've been setting:

PERL_MM_OPT=INSTALL_BASE=$HOME/perl5

And another developer has been
setting makepl_arg, mbuildpl_arg, install_path in CPAN's config.

Am I correct that INSTALL_BASE is the best approach now for a local library?

(Yes, probably should be using local::lib -- although this local lib is just
for development purposes to manage separate library versions on the same
machine).
