  For the record, your "use lib..." will work as is on MS-Win-whatever with 
the following caveat:  the path listed will be searched for on whatever drive 
is considered "active" for the application.

  From a command.com/cmd.exe shell, this will be the drive that is active when 
you run the Perl executable (or the script if you've set up an association 
between .pl and Perl (try ftype /? if on NT/XP/200x)).

  If you make a Windows Link instead, it will be the drive you list for the 
"Start In" path.

  Otherwise, all bets are off since Windows (the GUI) seems to be rather 
scattered itself in this regard.
