Actually, it's quite simple. Both the base Perl5 installation
and the install targets for most CPAN modules make use
of Perl5's Install.pm module, all you have to do is hack
contrib/perl5/lib/ExtUtils/Install.pm, which is what I did. The hack
isn't avaliable for public consumption, because I've yet to teach it to
honour a -DCLOOBER_PERL knob during ``make world''.

I'll report back when that's ironed out.

Ciao,
Sheldon.
