my first recommendation would be rpmforge.net.
http://rpmforge.net/user/packages/perl-IO-Zlib/
http://rpmforge.net/user/packages/perl-Archive-Tar/
if for some reason that won't work for you, there's always cpan2rpm,
which will save you some of the pain of dealing directly with CPAN
(which i agree is a bad idea on a production server).
