Definitely too much. I did a quick "scandeps.pl -B -V test.pl"
here and the culprit seems to be unicore/mktables
(which you don't need in an installed perl anyway) -
it seems to draw in CPAN.pm and what not.
I'll dig further...
As a quick workaround, you may safely delete .../unicore/mktables{,.lst}
