I found out why the error occurs. All this time, I had been using the the wrong directory to be included in @INC (".cpan/build/Cache-FastMmap-1.09/blib/lib/"- my current build directory of CPAN as I later found out its real function) when I should have put my local Perl's module installation dirctory in @INC. No wonder the necessary CImpl.so file was missing and couldn't be found.
