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?
