You should have read the Install file before installing the new version. All your questions are answered there; see in particular http://search.cpan.org/~rgarcia/perl-5.10.0/INSTALL#Coexistence_with_earlier_versions_of_perl_5

You may now want to recompile perl to get the @INC you want.

Thanks, I have read more than half of it, but I am just too haste especially for slow reader, lol. I have reinstalled all the modules of old perl into new perl. Maybe it's better, in case I would need the perl 5.8.8 again.

In any case it's not better for that reason. Sharing pure Perl modules by including those directories in the @INC of the new version would not have affected the way the old Perl version works.
