Description

If you have CPAN set up, it will inject environment variables that break the perl module installation, specifically PERL_MM_OPT=INSTALL_BASE=/home/jpeach/perl5.

The resulting error is:

Making all in perl
make[3]: Entering directory '/tmp/org.apache.trafficserver.3277/obj/lib/perl'
test -f "../../lib/perl/Makefile.PL" || cp -rf "/home/jpeach/tmp/trafficserver-6.1.1/lib/perl/." "../../lib/perl/"
/usr/bin/perl Makefile.PL INSTALLDIRS= PREFIX=/tmp/org.apache.trafficserver.3277/dst
Only one of PREFIX or INSTALL_BASE can be given.  Not both.

We ought to clear at least some of the perl environment variables when installing so that it doesn't fail in weird ways like this.
