When I was writing Morse::Code I ran into a little trouble on win98 with MakeMaker, and one issue turned out to be a 'bug' in MM_Win32.pm, here's a 'fix' i found for it in some perl forum (or newsgroup, i don't recall): 
UNINSTALL =   $(PERL) -MExtUtils::Install \
-e "uninstall($$ARGV[0],1,1); print qq(\nUninstall is deprecated. Plea
+se check the);" \
-e "print qq( packlist above carefully.\n  There may be errors. Remove
+ the);" \
-e "print qq( appropriate files manually.\n  Sorry for the inconvenien
+ces.\n)"
}; # fixed by crazyinsomniac changed all \" \" to qq()

One reason I dislike cpan is because it is retardedly biased towards windows users, and updating cpan automatically is dang near impossible, not to mention the things it does by default (like keep some . files in root, etc)

Disclaimer: Don't blame. It came from inside the void
perl -e "$q=$_;map({chr unpack qq;H*;,$_}split(q;;,q*H*));print;$q/$q;"
