I had similar troubles on Mac OS X, I think possibly due to a bad
CPAN/Config.pm file (that is, /usr/lib/perl5/5.10.X/CPAN/Config.pm).
Among other things, I was also seeing CPAN trying to use /CPAN/ as its
root directory -- that can't be very good.

I think this could be related to the MyConfig.pm in Bruce's
distribution, which has
   'cpan_home' => File::Spec->catfile($ENV{__INSTALLING_BRPERL}, "CPAN"),

but I haven't tested this carefully.

Anyway, I would suggest blowing away the CPAN/CONFIG.pm file and
starting over.  I think that will use a '.cpan' folder in your home
directory for CPAN stuff, and that might fix it.

If that doesn't help, hopefully Bruce will have more insight.
