Eek.  You should never directly put anything under
perl_root:[000000...].   Only Perl's own installers should ever write
to those directories.  Unpack your source kits in a scratch directory
somewhere, build them, run the test suites, and then when you are
satisfied they are ok run the installer like so:

$ mmk install

Now, this may not be causing the problem you observed, but this is
the first thing you need to do regardless.
