Installing CPAN modules in a location outside of the main perl tree is
usually done like so:

1) wget cpan-module
2) untar it
3) cd to cpan module directory created by tar
4) perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/path/to/writable_dir/lib
LIB=/path/to/writable_dir/lib (all on one line)
5) make && make test && make install
6) modify code it include /path/to/writable_dir/lib
example: use lib qw(/path/to_writable_dir/lib)

My posting yesterday with the subject "makefile to install delegates"
touches on this. So far no comments.
