in reply to @INC from $0

some other elegant solution I've overlooked?

lib is core:

($_ = $0) =~ s[[\\/][^\\/]+$][]; use lib $_;

With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday'
Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority". I knew I was on the right track :)
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.

    use happens at BEGIN time, so that won't work  Empty compile time value given to use lib

        Then wrap it in a BEGIN block.

        Same issue  BEGIN{($_ = $0) =~ s[[\\/][^\\/]+$][]; use lib $_;}
