sitecustomize.pl? (Score:1)
What about using sitecustomize.pl to set the global variable? That way, regardless of whether Portable is loaded, anything could check to see if it's running on a portable perl.

Because then it wouldn't be "site" customisation, it would be vendor customisation. :)

Unless, for this particular case, you consider "portable" to be a "site" -- i.e a location (drive letter) that is determined by the user at run time, not the vendor at compile time.

I consider site to be a single stick, not the set of all sticks.
For the set of all sticks, the location (drive letter) is determined by the vendor at run-time.
