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.
