Just as a point of clarification to avoid potential problems: technically,
"cpan-mac" was the name of a distribution, one that worked ONLY with
MacPerl 5.2.0r4 (and a few versions before it).  What was included in
cpan-mac, as Bart said, is now included in MacPerl 5.6 and later, but it is
no longer called cpan-mac (since it is not a separate distribution), and
installing cpan-mac on MacPerl 5.6 will break things.
