That's a nice feature, we should add it.

But, in which order should the arguments be added to the load path?
The usual way would be to add them in such a way that the first
argument is searched first, I'd say.  You patch makes the frist one be
searched last.

Also, the command-line dirs should probably be searched before the
environment ones, which you patch does, but we need to document this
all properly.

I'd say we should use '-L' instead of '-I'.

Sooo, could you make a new patch that addresses the issues above, if
you agree?
