    cpan ..apparently rebuilds *all* modules present under /root/.cpan/build which isn't quite what I wanted.
    However, executing cpan . seems to work (from /root/.cpan/build/Devel-LeakTrace-0.05-aX0FLa/).
    Odd though that it proclaims that Directory '/root/.cpan/build/Devel-LeakTrace-0.05-aX0FLa/.' not below /root/.cpan/build, but that's another verse :)
        Well, it builds, but then it fails 2 of the tests (8 and 11) in its testsuite, which is beyond my understanding, so in the end, I'm still without a working Devel::LeakTrace :-/
