As PERL_ROOT is pointing to an incompatible and older
version of the include library, the test fails.

As far as I can tell, the assignment of perl_root is
irrelevant, or
at least is not the first problem we trip over.  The problem
is that
we're putting a garbage path at the beginning of INC. 
With
blead32219 I see this:

ok 8 - Extracting module to
D0:[CRAIG.PERL.LIB.CPANPLUS.T.dummy-cpanplus.5_10_0.build.Fo
o-Bar-0_01]

not ok 9 - Testing module

I'll  try to hunt down later where that bogus path gets
constructed.

My bet would be CPANPLUS/t/inc/conf.pl:

     ### paths to our own 'lib' and 'inc' dirs
     ### include them, relative from t/
     my paths   = map { "$FindBin::Bin/$_" }
qw[../lib inc];

     ### absolute'ify the paths in INC;
     my rel2abs = map { File::Spec->rel2abs( $_ ) }
                     grep { not
File::Spec->file_name_is_absolute 
( $_ ) } INC;

     ### use require to make devel::cover happy
     require lib;
     for ( paths, rel2abs ) {
         my $l = 'lib';
         $l->import( $_ )
     }

Perhaps File::Spec strikes again?
