Ryan,

Thanks for the 'provides' argument. Here is my output on every cpan  
component in /opt/local/bin.

@naiad ~] for idx in $( ls -1 /opt/local/bin/cpan* ); do port provides  
$idx; done
/opt/local/bin/cpan is provided by: perl5.8
/opt/local/bin/cpan-5.10 is provided by: perl5.10
/opt/local/bin/cpan2dist is not provided by a MacPorts port.
/opt/local/bin/cpan2dist-5.10 is provided by: perl5.10
/opt/local/bin/cpanp is not provided by a MacPorts port.
/opt/local/bin/cpanp-run-perl is not provided by a MacPorts port.
/opt/local/bin/cpan-5.10 is provided by: perl5.10
/opt/local/bin/cpan2dist is not provided by a MacPorts port.
/opt/local/bin/cpan2dist-5.10 is provided by: perl5.10
/opt/local/bin/cpan2dist-5.10 is provided by: perl5.10
/opt/local/bin/cpanp is not provided by a MacPorts port.
/opt/local/bin/cpanp-run-perl is not provided by a MacPorts port.

Rather odd that cpanplus is not showing as being registered with any  
macport. I wonder if I should blow away perl5.10 and reinstall?

Scratchin' me noggin',
Shawn
