I'm attempting to install Unicode::LineBreak with the eventual goal of of install vCard on Strawberry Perl v 5.16.2. (now on v 5.18.2)

The following is the output of my original attempt to installing to v 5.16.2:

Update

After feedback from syphilis, I decided it was worthwhile to try upgrade to the latest version 5.18.2 and try to install again. Unfortunately, it also failed with new errors:
