SPUG: add to default @INC

There's a few tricks.

    $ perl -I/path/to/added/directory
    $ export PERL5LIB="/path/to/added/directory:$PERL5LIB"

You can also use the 'use lib' pragma, but that's a runtime 
modification, so it doesn't sound like what you're looking for.  Of all 
of the options, setting the PERL5LIB environment variable seems like the 
closest to what you are asking for.  Of course, this _is_ Perl, so there 
are probably other tricks as well :-)
