A 'force install Bundle::LWP' will do.
I have not tested extensively but LWP 5.65 works with Perl 5.8.0 on win32.
What does not work on Win32 is https, because Crypt::SSLeay will not compile.
If someone is curious about it:
Microsoft (R) 32-bit C/C++ Optimizing Compiler Version 12.00.8804 for 80x86
(Visual Studio 6.0 sp5)
openssl 0.96e successfully compiled
cpan install Crypt::SSLeay output:
