Cygwin issue with home dirs containing spaces

Hi all, I think there's a bug with cpan and names containing spaces.
E.g., my username is Joe Schmoe, and I get:

>>>

$ cpan Error

  There's a new CPAN.pm version (v1.84) available!
  [Current version is v1.7601]
  You might want to try
    install Bundle::CPAN
    reload cpan
  without quitting the current session. It should be a seamless upgrade
  while we are running...

Otherwise, how do I install cpan modules to the 'global' directories
(instead of my user's ~/.cpan)? (There is no 'su' in cygwin.)

Thanks in advance.
