Perl CPAN module help

["Gary Nielson" <gary at garynielson dot com>]

I tried installing several perl modules today, but make test failed on
several in the LWP package and for HTML::Parser etc. Couldn't find modules
I'd already installed in the INC path. With HTML::Parser it couldn't run gcc
because it was not found. How do you use CPAN under cygwin? Is there a web
page that outlines how to configure CPAN for cygwin, is that what is needed?
Are others having problems and how did you fix them. I successfully install
some and have force installed others and notice that if you do a perldoc
perllocal you only get the first three modules listed, whereas if you do a
more on the perllocal file, you see a lot more listed. What's up with that,
can anyonw explain?

Any help appreciated. Thank you.
