Hi Ken
I have cpan set up to use 'sudo' when it's building it's what I've
done everyother time but there's something odd about this box - if I
run make or make test I get cascade of permissions errors caused by
trying to write to /Library/perl. It's like it can't seem to equate
admin status to root.
