No, we are not mucking with /usr/bin but are talking about a
directory for platform specific Perl libraries, which we need to
ask Perl at build-time.
And the standard way to say that is to do:
use lib '@@INSTLIBDIR@@';
but that always prepends the directory to the search path, and
the ugly stuff is to allow test scripts to override it when
needed.
