I have run into the exact same problem on the script server I set up for my alliance on Lacuna Expanse. I've found that editing the metadata files for the perlbrew installation in the new user's home directory (and the new user's .bashrc/.bash_profile) is the way to correct the path problem. It really was quite simple, even though it wasn't automated. For an automated solution, a quick search/replace script could be created to do the path corrections for you in the appropriate files. One final point of advice: Look in the ~/.cpanm / ~/.perlbrew/ directories for any conf files that need updating as well. As the new user, run the cpanm command on a simple module to make sure you got it right. Good luck!
Tommy A mistake can be valuable or costly, depending on how faithfully you pursue correction
