Bingo! Check the docs for ExtUtils::AutoInstall: 

If you do not wish to put a copy of ExtUtils::AutoInstall under inc/, 
+and are confident that users will have internet access, you may repla
+ce the use lib 'inc'; line with this block of code:

    # ExtUtils::AutoInstall Bootstrap Code, version 7.
    BEGIN{my$p='ExtUtils::AutoInstall';my$v=0.45;$p->VERSION||0>=$v
    or+eval"use $p $v;1"or+do{my$e=$ENV{PERL_EXTUTILS_AUTOINSTALL};
    (!defined($e)||$e!~m/--(?:default|skip|testonly)/and-t STDIN or
    eval"use ExtUtils::MakeMaker;WriteMakefile(PREREQ_PM=>{'$p',$v}
    );1"and exit)and print"==> $p $v required. Install it from CP".
    "AN? [Y/n] "and<STDIN>!~/^n/i and print"*** Installing $p\n"and
    do{if (eval '$>' and lc(`sudo -V`) =~ /version/){system('sudo',
    $^X,"-MCPANPLUS","-e","CPANPLUS::install $p");eval"use $p $v;1"
    ||system('sudo', $^X, "-MCPAN", "-e", "CPAN::install $p")}eval{
    require CPANPLUS;CPANPLUS::install$p};eval"use $p $v;1"or eval{
    require CPAN;CPAN::install$p};eval"use $p $v;1"||die"*** Please
    manually install $p $v from cpan.org first...\n"}}}

I really, really detest all the various autoinstallers.

I'd report the use of AutoInstall as a bug for the module that is failing.
