Messed up my perl install on Mac OS X 10.6

"I have messed up my perl install on Mac OS X 10.6. I'll explain how:
I wanted to add a cpan package for Bundle::DBD::mysql, cpan told me to update Bundle::CPAN first. I couldn't because of permissions. So I sudoed perl -MCPAN -e shell and updated cpan, then I got the mysql bundle, but it failed some tests, which I then forced the install (it works btw). Then for some reason I decided to rebuild the mysql bundle. This took a long long time. Eventually I realized it had rebuilt a lot, like perldoc."
