... sets global system environment variable PERL5LIB to its own internal copy of Perl

This is not normally a problem as PERL5LIB does *not* clobber existing @INC.
It merely adds (prepends)the specified path(s) to @INC:
C:\>perl -le "print \"@INC\"" C:/MinGW/perl516/site/lib C:/MinGW/perl516/lib . C:\>set PERL5LIB=C:/rubbish C:\>perl -le "print \"@INC\"" C:/rubbish C:/MinGW/perl516/site/lib C:/MinGW/perl516/lib . C:\>
Seems to me that @INC should still be locating your modules, even though some additional paths have bee prepended to it by PERL5LIB.

Are you sure you've diagnosed the problem correctly ?
I'm wondering whether, perhaps, the wrong perl (ie Oracle's perl) is actually running your perl script.

Cheers,
Rob
