According to your post, your install process failed at line 32 and 98 of the t/01_basic.t file. I just downloaded and extracted out the tarball from CPAN. If I'm reading and understanding those lines correctly, they are testing the creation of a new presentation and closing a presentation within PowerPoint.

Based on that, I'll risk looking like an idiot and ask the dumb question. Do you have PowerPoint installed?

By the way, it looks like there's no test results for this module for perl 5.12.3 listed at cpantesters.org. (http://cpantesters.org/author/I/ISHIGAKI.html#Win32-PowerPoint) If you do have PowerPoint installed and still seeing the same install issue, you might want to submit a bug.
