lestrrat -- Thanks very much! The export_to_level(2) works! for modules that are inheriting Exporter.pm. We still have however, many old .pl libraries, some of which are packages, others which are just files of subroutines. Pretty much in all cases, those that are actually packages, don't require Exporter; and the .pl subroutine files certainly don't.

Now in normal mode, the symbols for the subroutines in the subroutine libfiles would remain in main, since no package name caused Perl to change namespaces. But in my PmLoader, without an export functionality, these remain in PmLoader.

So in both of these cases, I guess I should concoct a local export subroutine (based on the relevant code in Exporter.pm) to call, since export_to_level() can't be used. Or maybe I should play with package name switching... Again, thanks alot for your help!
