I can't reproduce what you see with Apache::Reload and I don't see 
anything in the code that mangles @INC.

Though what I do see, is that if you define PERL5LIB outside a 
VirtualHost, it overrides any PERL5LIB defined inside all VirtualHosts, 
no matter if you use Apache::Reload or not. I don't remember if that's 
how it should be or whether it's a bug. Those who use vhosts can 
probably help rectify the issue here.
