It seems that you have used some sort of backup tool to save one or
more backups to /dev/st0 before creating an st0 device node. Since
you are root, you're allowed to create normal files under /dev. Just
delete this huge st0 file and create a real device node for it:
# cd /dev
# sh MAKEDEV st0
then rerun your backup thingie to save the data to a real tape and not
a file on disk.

I don't use CPAN, but I'd probably move /root/.cpan someplace else and
symlink to it, just in case useful data is still in there.
