Question (I apologize if this is covered elsewhere, but I am not 
sure where) -

Is there a breakdown or listing of what modules which appear in 
CPAN (now or in the past) which have made it into the standard Perl 
distribution?

Maybe, I suppose, it would be safe to just scan the @LIB path and 
assume those which were installed on a virgin Perl set-up ARE the 
standard modules included?  I have been hacking at both my Solaris 
8 and Mac OS X systems with regard to which modules are `perl 
-MCPAN -e shell` safe, etc...

Just curious.
