Mmm... I just ran a test script and got a working version, but I can't get it to not display warning messages.

BEGIN {
  my $a = "c:/";
  use lib "$a";
}

use GetWords;
print new GetWords;

The warning message (without -w swicth or 'use warnings'):

Empty compile time value given to use lib at C:\Documents and Settings\mt2k\De sktop\testing.pl line 3

-------------------------------------
eval reverse@{[lreP
=>q{ tsuJ\{qq},' rehtonA'
,q{\}rekcaH },' tnirp']}[1+1+
1,1-1,1+1,1*1,(1+1)*(1+1)];

Mm?

my $somewhere;
BEGIN { $somewhere = q(/over/the/rainbow) }

use lib $somewhere;

Oh yeah.. that's funny. Get this - right as soon as the implicit BEGIN (via the use) is parsed inside the currently-being-parsed BEGIN block it is executed. So you're attempting to use $a in your nested BEGIN block prior to defining it. See?

 BEGIN {
   my $a = "c:/";
   BEGIN { require "$a"; import "$a"; }
 }
