I'm having some trouble install the LWP bundle with 5.81. Does anyone know
why I would be getting this response:

make: *** [test] Error 255
I've investigated as far as the test file in t/html/form.t, and the
problem seems to be here:
@f = HTML::Form->parse(<<'EOT', "http://localhost/");
<form action="abc" name="foo">
<input name="name">
</form>
<form></form>
EOT
print "not " unless @f == 2;
print "ok 2\n";
my $f = shift @f;
--->print "not " unless defined($f->value("name")) && $f->value("name") eq
"";
Using Data::Dumper, it shows that the @f array is defined but empty. I'm
not too sure where to go past here though (not a module writer! Yet!).
Would there be any bad consequences to forcing the install?
