With a straight-forward OpenSolaris 2008.11 install, CPAN doesn't work. 
The default install appears to include Perl, and even CPAN, but when I run
CPAN and try to install anything, I get make errors and all sorts of
stuff, and it never does seem to install anything.  But quick googling
around doesn't seem to show this as a known problem with known solutions. 
Any ideas?

Also, how can one un-do everything involving Perl and start over?  I'm
sure I'm going to need to do this a lot :-).  I notice, for example, that
deleting my ~/.cpan subdirectory doesn't clear out the options I set.
