This is the relevant CPAN.pm code:
return $self->{prereq_pm} if
exists $self->{prereq_pm_detected} && $self->{prereq_pm_detected};
return unless $self->{writemakefile}; # no need to have succeeded
# but we must have run it
my $build_dir = $self->{build_dir} or die "Panic: no build_dir?";
Are you not seeing any `02packages.details.txt.gz' or `03modlist.data.gz'?

Phil.
