Subject: XML::SAX, possibly others boom when INSTALLBASE not in PERL5LIB
This causes cpanm to fail: $ PERL_MM_OPT=INSTALL_BASE=/tmp/someplace/not/in/perl5lib cpanm XML::SAX The problem is this line in XML::SAX's Makefile.PL: \t\@\$(PERL) -MXML::SAX -e "XML::SAX->add_parser(q(XML::SAX::PurePerl))- Show quoted text
>save_parsers()"
The problem is that it tries to run perl under the assumption that the lib will be installed to somewhere in @INC, whether by PERL5LIB or otherwise. CPAN.pm fixes this by adding the blib of the module to PERL5LIB, which works on my locally-modified cpanm as well.

Care to elaborate why do you have to do this in the first place?
