My guess is that you have PERL5LIB set to some value in your environment and that is getting picked up.

If that's not it, please show us the exact steps you are running, and the exact output you get from perl -V, and also the OS you are using.

Nowadays, at least if you build Perl with a "relocatable" include directory, the build directory doesn't matter, you can move the Perl binary and its other directories around. To do that, use Duserelocatableinc when running Configure.

You can check if a Perl is built with a relocatable include directory by running

perl -V:userelocatableinc
