Let me preface my following comments with the statement that it has been many years since I have managed Solaris systems, so it is possible that /opt/csw contains your locally built perl installation. Assuming that that is not the case...

I would also recommend not messing with the system (or in this case csw application's) installed modules with direct CPAN installs. Instead, use the mechanism provided by the supplier of the /opt/csw installation of perl, or build your own Perl.

If you directly install modules into this perl installation, you risk breaking other vendor supplied applications that rely on a certain state of that perl installation. Your updates can break the vendor environment, or vendor updates can break your environment.

Instead, use something like perlbrew + gcc (or, if you have a compiler, the compiler that you have installed) to install a locally managed perl installation.
