CPAN.pm's autobundle feature will be your friend here.

perl -MCPAN -e autobundle

... you'll end up with a bundle file written containing all installed modules, 
for instance:

Wrote bundle file
    /home/davidp/.cpan/Bundle/Snapshot_2011_04_28_00.pm

You can then install that bundle on the other box, and job done.
