My problem seems to be solved...

following instructions I did:

  $ sudo perl -MCPAN -eshell
  cpan> look HTML::Tagset
  $ perl Makefile.PL
  $ make

that seemed to work ok. But trying to install LWP still seemed not to work:

  $ sudo perl -MCPAN -eshell
  cpan> install LWP

generated error messages.

So back to:

  $ sudo perl -MCPAN -eshell
  cpan> look LWP
  $ perl Makefile.PL
  $ make

which seemed to work!
But the cgi script I was writing still couldn't find LWP::UserAgent. I
looked at the script error message more closely and saw the
directories it was looking in were different from where cpan installed
the module (~/.cpan/build/libwww-perl-5.808/lib). So I copied the
cpan-installed LWP directory into /Library/Perl, and now it all works.

I also installed the BSD SDKs from the Mac OSX install CD. I don't
know if that would have avoided the problem from the beginning...

Thanks a lot, I am most grateful for the help
