I traced it.  It turned out to be an unlisted dependency of URI::data on
MIME::Base64.  I installed MIME::Base64 and all went well.

For those who like to know:

The URI->new method is testing for $@ =3D~ /^Can\'t locate.*in \@INC/ aft=
er
eval "require URI::$scheme" and treating the (non-error) case where the
URI::$scheme module couldn't be found and the (error) case where one of
URI::$scheme's dependencies couldn't be found the same.

Obviously the URI makefile isn't explicitly testing for dependencies
either and Bundle::LWP on CPAN currently attemps to install URI before
MIME::Base64 .
