SPUG:cpan.bat caches preventing WWW::Mechanize update

WWW::Mechanize is out with version 0.37, but cpan.bat (ActiveState
5.8.0 build 804) seems to have cached the 0.36 version internally.
The 0.36 version didn't install correctly due to a problem with the
Clone module, but the 0.37 version should not require Clone.

Is there a way to clean or update cpan.bat's internal cache of
Metadata or source distributions so that it kick-starts a fresh
install of the 0.37 verion of WWW::Mechanize, the one that doesn't
need Clone?  And is there a way to rid my cache of the half installed
Clone?

Thanks,
Michael
