in reply to dealing with RUNTIME, COMPILE TIME and use lib ...

Switch to using equivalent code that executes at runtime.

my $version = "something from the post"
unshift @INC, "/commun_path/$version/ensembl/modules";
require Bio::EnsEMBL::Registry;
Bio::EnsEMBL::Registry->import;

    Or run your code during compile time

    my $version;
BEGIN {
    $version = "something from the post";
}
use lib "/commun_path/$version/ensembl/modules";
use Bio::EnsEMBL::Registry;

      I thought about that. But then I thought that

      $version = "something from the post";

      could potentially involve all sorts of complexities that you might not want to do at compile time.

      It's certainly another alternative tho'.
