I tried using g-cpan -i XML::Entities which would not install correctly. It seems that the source from CPAN extracts to XML-Entities instead of XML-Entities-1.0000. I just copied a basic g-cpan created ebuild and added the $S variable to point to ${WORKDIR}/$PN instead.

Created attachment 250525 [details] XML-Entities 1.0000 ebuild
Created attachment 250547 [details] XML::Entities 1.0000 Made a silly mistake with the first one and put my own name in for the module author, not realising it's important for the CPAN download. Corrected.
I've added a revised version of the ebuild to my overlay: http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=dev/jmbsvicetto.git;a=tree;f=dev-perl/XML-Entities
