If the session is getting terminated by the CPAN install, have you tried
running the installation from within a subshell?
% ssh host
$ sudo bash
Password:
# perl -MCPAN -e 'install MQSeries'
... stuff happens ...
... stuff breaks ...
$ # you're back to the initial remote shell
That way you at least shouldn't lose the whole connection.
You could probably also use an eval...
# perl -e 'eval{ use CPAN; install MQSeries}'
Or something along those lines...
