Puzzling...

I fixed this "unpack a directory and a file both called 'version'" problem
and rewrote some of the embedding stuff. But it's working as expected.

No, this was for "pp --link LIB" - though both deal with shared libraries,
this doesn't have any implications here.

You can't because it needs to be set _before_ you can run the exe.
Also the test confirmed that the packed executable "sees" the correct setting.
If /your/dyld/path is what the test reported, try
DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/your/dyld/path DYLD_PRINT_LIBRARIES=1 /your/dyld/path/foo.exe
It should tell you _which_ libperl.dylib is used.
