I got the first non-Unix report with a similar failure.  See
  http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/2009/11/msg6061071.html

It goes like this: =======================================================

Getting GP/PARI from ftp://megrez.math.u-bordeaux.fr/pub/pari/unix/
Not in this directory, now chdir('OLD')...
Can't use an undefined value as a symbol reference at

    Can't fetch file with Net::FTP, now trying with LWP::UserAgent...
