If I don't have to be root or do a make install, why am I not able to get
modules like Expat to install successfully, and why does their documentation
tell me that's what I have to do? It seems like if there's another option,
the pod docs or readme should tell me so. If there's another alternative it
would be great to know what it was; can you please post a link to any help
docs? Thanks.

True.

False, at least in most cases, though there may need to be other steps
taken, like updating LD_LIBRARY_PATH, etc.
