we had this same problem.
make test expects 3 pre-loaded perl modules to be present in order to execute. One of them is LWP::UserAgent (part of libwww-perl) The problem you specify only occurs if you have installed a version of libwww-perl that is > 5.53 (probably v. 5.6) If you don't want to downgrade, you can install 5.53 to a local directory, set $PERL5LIB to include it, then rerun make test.
