When I run the "make fixdeps" step described in the directions, it attempts to load ExtUtil::MakeMaker from CPAN -- even though its already installed. This wouldn't be so bad, but it actually hangs and uses 100% of CPU time (according to "top") like its in an infinite loop. This is the output just before it hangs:
Your post makes me very happy to know I wasn't crazy:

This is a pain in the ass and I don't know if it's a FBSD CPAN problem or a CPAN dependency problem but it does happen, and it's really annoying. I don't have a fix but a workaround. It will always hang on the same test, so just ^C and "look" into the module. remove the test and go back to the cpan shell. It won't bother you again for the whole CPAN session.
