Modules like Image::Magick (which is just an interface to some C programs, image libraries, and whatnot) will get *quite* interesting.
 I would imagine that the C libs wouldn't be there, and that you'd have to build imagemagick with 
./configure --prefix=$HOME
make
make install

[download]
Then of course, the system doesn't know where to find your libs... 
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:${HOME}/lib
ldconfig

[download]
Then you'd need to build the Perl interface... 
cd /path/to/Image_Magick
perl Makefile.pl PREFIX=${HOME}/lib/perl5
make
make install

[download]
Of course then when the webserver (probably user nobody) tries to run it... might not find the libs... depending...

So the CGI might start: 

#!/usr/bin/perl -t
use strict;
use lib '/home/myhome/lib/perl5';
$ENV{LD_LIBRARY_PATH} = $ENV{LD_LIBRARY_PATH}.'/home/myhome/lib';
use Image::Magick;

[download]
Yeah, that might be... "interesting."
