There is some information at <http://www.crinoid.com/perl560.htmlx> on getting CPAN to work, but it may be somewhat outdated by now. I confess that I generally just download and build packages manually, though it would be nice to have CPAN working. N.B. The CRTL downcases command-line arguments, so you'd need -"MCPAN" above to preserve upper case.
