The default include path is compiled into Apache. I don't know if this is the 'proper' way to do it (my mod_perl book is at the office and I'm not), but this does work. 
<perl>
BEGIN {
        push(@INC,"/home/maverick/");
}
</perl>

Adding something like this to your httpd.conf or perl.conf file will cause @INC (the include path array) to be modified at server start time BEFORE it tries to do any PerlModule, require or use directives.

/\/\averick
perl -l -e "eval pack('h*','072796e6470272f2c5f2c5166756279636b672');"
