It's

      use lib "$Bin/../lib";

(I don't like this ../lib here, but that's my personal preference).

But you might be right that I am overly cautious in avoiding FindBin.
It is nowadays not recommended solution (on #perl, for example), but
it is perhaps true that the conditions where it fails are not fulfilled
for the case of gitweb.

Or perhaps not:

  KNOWN ISSUES

  If there are two modules using FindBin from different directories
  under the same interpreter, this won't work. Since FindBin uses a
  BEGIN block, it'll be executed only once, and only the first caller
  will get it right. This is a problem under **mod_perl** and other
  persistent Perl environments, where you shouldn't use this module.

Gitweb can be used under mod_perl (to be more exact ModPerl::Registry).

Ooops, I'm sorry.

I'll fix it in resend, if required.
