Title: Cook 1300

These are some changes to the perl cookbook to let it run under Mac OS X. It sets some vars for root group and .cpan location depending on platform, and does not install libperl-dev, libwww-perl, or upgrade perl when it's running OS X, because of problems with mucking with the system perl and uncertainties as to which package manager is installed. It does let cpan_install work, however, and configures CPAN in a different way than on the other platforms that may be worth considering using elsewhere as well.
