Setup: running gentoo inside vbox on Solaris (x86)
Very new install

Running `emerge -v dev-vcs/git' when it comes to installing several dev-perl
pkgs begining with dev-perl/Digest-HMAC-1.30.0-r1::gentooi, it fails with a
brief explanation:

  >>> Configuring source in 
/var/tmp/portage/dev-perl/Digest-HMAC-1.30.0-r1/work/Digest-HMAC-1.03 ...
   * perl-module.eclass: Suspicious environment values found.
   *     
PERL5LIB="/usr/local/cpan-perl:/usr/local/cpan-perl/lib:/usr/local/cpan-perl/lib/perl5"
   * Your environment settings may lead to undefined behavior and/or build 
failures.
   * ERROR: dev-perl/Digest-HMAC-1.30.0-r1::gentoo failed (configure phase):
   *   Please fix your environment ( ~/.bashrc, package.env, ... ), see above 
for details.
   * 

I've been building cpan packages and have them installed at the locations
mentioned above.  Then, to get perl to include them in `@INC', I've utilized
the PERL5LIB variable in one of my login scripts, just as it appears in the
error.

Its not clear to me why setting these directories with PERL5LIB is
`Suspicious', or how to proceed from here.
