In order to do SSL connections using LWP you need to install Crypt::SSLeay.
In order to install SSLeay, you need to install openssl. I don't know if
openssl has been ported to the Mac proper, but I believe it can be compiled
on OS X. You can find out at http://www.openssl.org/ . If I were to guess, I
would say that it hasn't been ported to the Mac OS, at least not by the
openssl team.
