cpan-mac 0.40 comes with Mac::AppleEvents 1.22, I am pretty sure.  Open the
actual file :site_perl:Mac:AppleEvents.pm and check inside.  If it says
1.22, then you need to fix your libraries so site_perl comes first.

And yes, DBD::Pg requires compilation, cf. what Bart wrote.  Read
macperlmodinstall, and you'd probably be better off using DBD::Proxy (links
to the document and a tutorial on DBD::Proxy are on
http://pudge.net/macperl/).
