I tried to install VMS::IndexedFile with CPAN - it went into a CPU loop.
I killed it, and tried again.
It crashed with an out of memory error.

I tried from the system account.
I cleared the lock file, and tried installing the Bundle::CPAN it 
recommmended.
This gave an RMS-F-SYN error, then spooled a large chunk of code to the 
terminal, then complained that makefile.pl was missing and tried to make it.
It failed.
VMS::IndexedFile now gave the same error.

I installed VMS::IndexedFile manually.

Is there something I need to do to make cpan install work ?

Is VMS::IndexedFile the best/only way to read by key ? (it seems very 
old - version 0.02 from April 1999)

Thanks
Chris
