I have a funny problem: When installing my OS (Mac OS 10.3), I did not realize that
the 'make' utility was part of the developer tools (which I did not install).
Now neither the CPAN module nor the manual installation process for Perl modules work

Put quotes around your arguments. Use single quotes if you are not doing
variable substitution, and double quotes if otherwise.
That is:
