Does your program fiddle with @INC somewhere in the BEGIN{} block?

If other scripts don't behave like this, the problem should be local
this specific script.

Start 'perl -V' and look at the bottom of the output to see what's
compiled into your perl as '@INC'.  Then compare that with your script
and see if it differs.

You can also put the following right at the start of your script to see
when '@INC' gets modified - if that's the case.

    BEGIN { local $,="\n"; print @INC }

    ---------- perldoc perlmod ----------
    A "BEGIN" subroutine is executed as soon as possible, that is, the
    moment it is completely defined, even before the rest of the
    containing file is parsed.  You may have mul- tiple "BEGIN" blocks
    within a file--they will execute in order of definition.
    ---------- perldoc perlmod ----------

As you see, you can stuff that statement between the lines of your
script header.  Use multiple of these blocks spread over the
initialization of your program to see if '@INC' gets clobbered
somewhere.  Something like this:

    ---------- snip ----------
    #!/usr/bin/perl

    use strict;
    use warnings;

    BEGIN { local $"="\n"; print "1st: @INC\n"; }
    use lib qw{/tmp};
    BEGIN { local $"="\n"; print "2nd @INC\n"; }

    local $"="\n"; print "3rd @INC\n";
    ---------- snip ----------
