Now that I have that out of my system, thanks for pointing out what I should have been able to find out from the Camel. I just assumed that the problem was a precedence issue without RTFMing. In retrospect, the issue is simple, and posting the use lines from my code would have raised flags for you more experienced monks immediatedly. I was simply putting the use lib '/path/to/my/lib' just after the last use statement at the top of my code. I assume the use lib needs to be put before the use for the module in question.

Moving the use lib line caused my local version to be called correctly, and everything is good with the world.
