I will be happy to do that provided --

1. you can tell me how to reinstall Plack via cpan temporarily to a
local directory so I don't screw up my existing successful Plack
installation that I achieved via cpanm

2. I am able to replicate. As you note above, I too was very surprised
the cpan was installing everything under the sun, including Moose. I
only hope I am able to replicate that... I kick myself for not having
saved that output right away.
