Getting the modules into the PREFIX path is not the problem. It is ensuring that the modules is installed in the correction location w/in the PREFIX path that is the problem:

PREFIX=/usr/local/perl5.8.6
/usr/local/perl5.8.6/lib/5.8.6/sun4-solaris/Errno.pm (core) /usr/local/perl5.8.6/lib/site_perl/5.8.6/Errno.pm (cpan)
