There are problems with the CPAN installs:
1. I think it assumes the system is Unix and requires a C compiler (cl).
2. It still has trouble identifying modules that are already installed. As
an example it complains that I don't have Socket6 installed at the correct
rev level. I install Socket6, which works fine, and then rerun "install
POE". The installation still does not recognize the newly installed
Socket6.
