Welcome, fellow perl hacker.
I'm not sure I understand your issue. You say "Is it possible to install perl CPAN module". Do you mean you can't install the CPAN module itself? Or do you mean that you are unable to _use_ the CPAN module to install some other module from CPAN?
I have verified that the CPAN module is present on my N810. There are other problems that need solving with it. But the CPAN module itself _is_ present.
For what it's worth, I have done:
apt-get install perl-base
and apt-get install perl
...and that may be where I got the CPAN module. Or it may have already been there. Those two packages are in the Maemo Chinook repository. There are other module packages available from there as well. Try: "apt-cache search perl".
You can check on the contents of any specific package with: "apt-cache show package_name"
Does any of this help?

I failed to mention in my previous post that you can: "apt-get install make"

gzip on the N8x0 is not the real one, but a busybox version.

so what ?
I also suffer of this and given the list of packages that will be removed, I fear my n810 would become unusable.
How do you workaround this ?

gnutar is available from the Elkins repository to replace the limited tar that comes with a fresh Maemo install.
Sadly, that repository does not have a gnuzip.
I tried entering the cpan tool and setting the gzip option to null with
o conf gzip ''
(That's two single-quotes, not one double quote.) My hope was that the cpan tool would skip over gzip and use a different tool. No joy. I was successful in zero-ing out the field. But the cpan tool went ahead and tried it anyway.
I'm out of time. ToDo: 1)find a proper gzip build for maemo, 2)try a manual install with the newly installed 'make'.

I successfully compiled gzip from sources, but CPAN hangs out when trying to process CPAN database:
..and n810 went to restart..
is it dead end?..
Code:
cpan[1]> install Moose CPAN: Storable loaded ok (v2.09) Going to read /root/.cpan/Metadata Going to read /root/.cpan/sources/authors/01mailrc.txt.gz ............................................................................DONE Going to read /root/.cpan/sources/modules/02packages.details.txt.gz Database was generated on Tue, 10 Jun 2008 07:06:46 GMT HTTP::Date not available ...................................................................
is it dead end?..

Dead end? I think not yet...
Would you be willing to share your copy of gzip?

CPAN depends on ExtUtils::MakeMaker, MakeMaker depends on some File::* modules. Some of them depends on ExtUtils::MakeMaker. I manually downloaded some of them, but when:
