I don't see the output of `perl -V` there. You did do `perl -v`.

It looks like you are behind a firewall that doesn't allow ftp nor http
traffic.
Do you have an http or ftp proxy?
I tried it from a shell account without firewall issues, and got this:
Can't locate object method "safe_quote" via package "CPAN::HandleConfig"
at [...]/.cpan/lib/CPAN.pm line 5425.
I decided to try
perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::CPAN'
but got the same error.
I copied the sub safe_quote from the newly created
~/.cpan/build/CPAN-1.9205/lib/CPAN/HandleConfig.pm
into the old
~/.cpan/lib/CPAN/HandleConfig.pm.
Here some lines from my .cpan/CPAN/MyConfig.pm:
'build_dir' => q[~/.cpan/build],
'cpan_home' => q[~/.cpan],
'makepl_arg' => q[LIB=~/.cpan/lib \
PREFIX=~/.cpan/perl \
INSTALLMAN1DIR=~/man/man1 \
INSTALLMAN3DIR=~/man/man3],
With a lot of patience, and switching to the shell of a box with a newer
OS (FreeBSD 7.0-STABLE v.s. FreeBSD 4.10-RELEASE-p2) I finally managed
to install Bundle::CPAN.
At the start, cpan says: "install Bundle::CPAN; reload cpan", but I had
to leave the cpan shell, and enter it again, to get the new version
active. My CPAN there is now v1.9205.
Trying install of Math::Pari again now ...
Succeeded:
cpan[3]> install Math::Pari
Math::Pari is up to date (2.010800).
