When a module installation fails: make sure you're not running out of
disk space or anything silly like that, double-check the configuration
settings, wipe out your partial installation, and try again.

Besides any configuration for the module itself, installation may be
affected by something in your CPAN configuration (if you're using the
CPAN module to install) or in your environment variables. If you can
install other modules that include C code, these configuration items
are probably correct. (Since most of the modules pass their tests, the
configuration is probably not the problem for you.)

If you get the exact same problem when you try again, see whether you
can debug it on your own and determine (at least in part) why the test
script is failing. In this case, the errors all seem to be happening
in base/message (which would probably be a test script named
t/base/message.t); you can make a modified copy of that script to
debug it. (It may not always be true that you can debug anything if
you can add enough "print" statements, but it's always worked for me.
:-)  From the messages, it looks as if something is returning undef
when it shouldn't.

I believe that there's a mailing list specifically for LWP. It can
probably give you help on this.

Good luck with it!
