Running Mkbootstrap for Apache::Symbol - fails MP1.29

I'm trying to do a new install of apache and mod_perl on a Red Hat Linux box. 
I've build my own perl 5.8.1 in /opt/.  This is the first time I've had a build 
fail in years.


Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 2.1 (Panama)
Apache 1.3.29
mod_perl 1.29

perl -V:

As it's chdir'ed to

   /home/bhoggard/src/httpd_perl/mod_perl-1.29/Symbol

and it has '.' early in @INC, requiring Pod/Parser.pm, requires Symbol.pm, 
which it finds in mod_perl-1.29/Symbol, but that's a wrong Symbol.pm. That's 
why you get this error. You really want to get rid of that misplaced '.' in 
your @INC. Notice that "." must be the last entry in @INC, and you have it 
already.

Makefile.PL does:

   $ENV{PERL5LIB} = join ':', "$PWD/lib", $ENV{PERL5LIB};
   PERL5LIB => "PERL5LIB=$ENV{PERL5LIB}",

So it's your PERL5LIB setting that adds that '.' into the path. Fix it and the 
problem will go away. To fix either unset it or do a local override:

PERL5LIB="" perl Makefile.PL ...

Now can somebody explain to me why modperl has:

   PERL5LIB => "PERL5LIB=$ENV{PERL5LIB}",

I can't see how is it going to work:

env PERL5LIB="PERL5LIB=/tmp" perl-5.8.1 -le 'print join "\n", @INC'
PERL5LIB=/tmp
/home/stas/perl/5.8.1/lib/5.8.1/i686-linux
/home/stas/perl/5.8.1/lib/5.8.1
/home/stas/perl/5.8.1/lib/site_perl/5.8.1/i686-linux
/home/stas/perl/5.8.1/lib/site_perl/5.8.1
/home/stas/perl/5.8.1/lib/site_perl
.

it doesn't really add /tmp to @INC. Do I miss somethng?
