I might be obscuring things by troubleshooting XMLRPC::Lite when I could be troubleshooting LWP.

use LWP::UserAgent;
use HTTP::Request::Common;

$ENV{'PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME'} = 0;

my ($response_content, $response_status);

my $userAgent = LWP::UserAgent->new();
$userAgent->agent("PhilPerl");

my $request = HTTP::Request->new();
$request->method('GET');
$request->uri('https://perlmonks.org');

my $response = $userAgent->request($request);

Gets me a $response that seems more helpful. The gist of which is:

Can't load 'C:/Strawberry/perl/site/lib/auto/Net/SSLeay/SSLeay.xs.dll' for module Net::SSLeay: load_file:The specified module could not be found (LWP::Protocol::https not installed)

But I do have a C:\Strawberry\perl\site\lib\auto\Net\SSLeay\SSLeay.xs.dll so I'm not sure what to make of that.
