 **Update:** I had not seen this bug earlier, but I ran into the same issue and made a more general solution. You can already add stuff to `%config{ENV}` in the setup file, but it was being processed too late for `PERL5LIB` to do any good.
-[This change](https://github.com/jcflack/ikiwiki/commit/bc4721da0441a30822225c51b250be4cc5f8af24) moves the `%config{ENV}` handling earlier in the wrapper, so anything specified there is placed back in the actual environment before Perl gets control. Problem solved!

+My thinking on `delete` is once it's handled, it's handled. The C code
+is going to put this straight into the real environment and then do
+a simple `exec` ... is there any way this hasn't been handled?
+
+It just takes up space twice in the generated wrapper otherwise.
+Admittedly it's not much space, but seems to be even less point ... ?
