New Perl-Installation on new OS X

Hello all!

I have a new laptop. Apparently my Perl-Installation has problems. Itried to update all outdated modules with cpanplus; but I get on many,not all, modules error-messages, like:


        Unable to create a new distribution object for 'HTML::Entities'

or

        format not a string literal and no format arguments

With IO::Pty I got this message:

        (see conf/compilerok.log). Suggestions:
        1) The complier 'gcc-4.2' is not in your PATH. Add it
        to the PATH and try again. OR
        2) The compiler isn't installed on your system. Install it. OR
        3) You only have a different compiler installed (e.g. 'gcc').
        Either fix the compiler config in the perl Config.pm
        or install a perl that was built with the right compiler
        (you could build perl yourself with the available compiler).

making

        % which gcc     

I get:

        /usr/bin/gcc
making

        % gcc -v                

I get:
        Using built-in specs.
        Target: i686-apple-darwin10

Configured with: /var/tmp/gcc/gcc-5666.3~123/src/configure--disable-checking --enable-werror --prefix=/usr --mandir=/share/man--enable-languages=c,objc,c++,obj-c++--program-transform-name=/^[cg][^.-]*$/s/$/-4.2/ --with-slibdir=/usr/lib--build=i686-apple-darwin10 --program-prefix=i686-apple-darwin10---host=x86_64-apple-darwin10 --target=i686-apple-darwin10--with-gxx-include-dir=/include/c++/4.2.1

        Thread model: posix
        gcc version 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5666) (dot 3)

in /usr/bin my gcc is properly linked to gcc@ -> gcc-4.2

So, gcc seems to be al right. Is it possible, that the migrationassistant has mixed up, 32bit compiled modules with 64bit? Or is there aconfusion with the Perl of Fink? Here my Perl:
