You're running this via the CPAN script? Have you tried running the t
scripts individually, outside CPAN? You usually get a much better
idea of what's going wrong. If that doesn't work, step through the
tests in the debugger.

} Some background info:
} Hardware: PowerCenter Pro (Mac clone)
} OS: linuxppc 2.1.24 (based on RedHat)
} Perl: perl5.004_04
} libwww: libwww-perl-5.33
} MD5: MD5-1.7
} Base64: MIME-Base64-2.05
} HTML-Parser: HTML-Parser-2.18
} Data-Dumper: Data-Dumper-2.081
} libnet: libnet-1.0605
Except for the Hardware (Mac Performa 6400/180), my setup is exactly
the same as yours. libwww-perl-5.35 passes all tests, running via
the CPAN script.
}
} All tests for modules on which libwww depends were passed.
