[mplspm]: DateTime Issue on Windows

I am trying to use DateTime on Windows using ActiveState Perl.  I ran 
ppm and installed DateTime which also caused DateTime::Locale and 
DateTime::TimeZone to be installed.

My program blows up with

Can't locate DateTime/Locale/root.pm in @INC (@INC contains: .) at (eval 
47) line 3.

Any idea what DateTime/Locale/root.pm is or where it is supposed to come 
from?

Do I need to set some kind of Locale environment variable?  LC_ALL?

The same program runs on a Linux box.

The following are the particulars of the Perl:
