Subject: Prompts in the makefile can stall cpanm
Try installing Apache::Test to see what I mean. Although the prompts are suppressed, you can still type blinding at them through cpanm. If you `tail -f ~/.cpanm/build.log` in another shell you can even see the prompts. :) Perhaps an alarm() would be useful to prevent stalling?

This is a bug in the distribution. And yes there *is* an alarm timeout (configure_timeout, which defaults to 60s).
