If it was installed with CPAN, it is not in the FreeBSD package database
so how is a pkg_delete going to uninstall it?

Last time I checked, CPAN did not have an uninstall option. Does anyone
know any better?

I think you can get an install list out of the source (which might be
somewhere in ~/.cpan) and remove all the appropriate files by hand but
this might leave perl in an unstable state.
