I wanted to build an awesome place for people to discuss module specific issues, but I don't have any more time for this, and there are much better places to discuss Perl-related issues. I'd recommend asking your question on Stack Overflow or on Perl Monks.
If you are looking for a Perl tutorial or Perl-related news, I hope these links will serve you well.

Re: Author and Maintainer
It looks as if Sun's perl (built with cc) is incompatible with modules compiled using gcc.

I recommend building a separate installation of perl using gcc. There's no need to be root; you can install it in your home directory by fiddling with various Configure switches, e.g.

sh Configure -Dprefix=$HOME/perl -de

A fresh build of perl-5.8.8 takes around 10 minutes.
