Why are you using cpan? I think at first you should tell us something
about your environment (ActiveState Perl or Strawberry Perl).

Using 'g++' for linking instead of 'gcc'? Why do you do this? How did
you setup your environment? Further it looks like 'g++' is called like
'cl2' (MSVC compiler/linker) - something in the detection of EU::MM
seems to be wrong (good thing to be asked on #toolchain at irc.perl.org).
