-blabla-

  CPAN.pm: Going to build

Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good
Unable to find a perl 5 (by these names:

rl5.8.0.exe miniperl.exe, in these dirs:
/usr/local/bin /usr/bin /bin /cygdrive/

Warning: I could not locate your pod2man program.
Please make sure,
         your pod2man program is in your PATH before
you execute 'make'

$ whereis make
C:\cygwin\bin/make.exe
C:\cygwin\bin/make.exe

$ whereis perl
C:\cygwin\bin/perl.exe
C:\cygwin\bin/perl.exe
-----------------------------------------

so I was trying to install a new module for perl...
the problem seems to be with the cygwin versions
greater than 1.3.14!! if I install that older version,
all is ok. Please check out what is wrong.
