Problems in configuring Perl on Cygwin-64

I have run into unusual problems in configuring Perl from the time I
began using perl on my new Windows 7 installation (which was two days
ago).

I wanted to introduce libraries into the Perl distro, and my customary
way of doing this is to invoke:
      perl -MCPAN -e shell
which brings up the Perl config shell. Usually, when I do this for the
first time on a new installation, it asks me to configure stuff, and I
chose "yes" (as I always do) to auto-configure. It ended with an error
(sorry I forget what the error was), which has never happened before.

Would anyone know how to re-run this config (which seemed to go on its
own) so that I can reproduce the error?
