+Allow admin to specify where Perl modules will be installed
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+Add `--with-perlbase` option to `configure` to specify an alternative
+location for installing the Perl modules. This can be useful for setups

+environments that need to run multiple versions of Evergreen
