This could be the problem because IC goes out to get the LWP and it 
fails installation.

* HEAD command of LWP command clobbers /usr/bin/head when you blindly 
install LWP via CPAN
.....

* Second one is more of the problem of how you configure Perl 
installation.  I consider standard "layout" for Perl on MacOS X too 
dangerous (do you hear me, Sanchez?)

Hopefully Apple will fix this.
