Subject: Test suite fails to run at all (Windows 7, VC++ 2010, perl-5.21.8)
After overcoming the circular dependency issue reported in https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=101732 (thanks to Slaven's suggestion), I'm now left with the other problem mentioned in that ticket: Namely, that the LWP test suite fails to start up at all. I'm using perl-5.21.8 on Windows 7, building with VC++ 2010. I have attached the output of "perl Makefile.PL && nmake && nmake test" using libwww-perl-6.09. (This is a new perl installation after attempting to install LWP with "cpan install LWP", so all the prerequisites are (freshly) installed, but otherwise it's an out-of-the-box perl-5.21.8 installation.)

This should be fixed in the 6.11 release; please give it a try! (Many thanks to Graham Knop for tracking down the problem and providing a patch.)

Thanks! Yes, with this fix plus the fix for #101732, I now have "cpan install LWP" working with a clean installation of perl-5.21.8 :-)
