I'm using cpanm to install Perl modules, but I can't install Thread::Pool for some reason:
$ sudo cpanm Thread::Pool
fails and the log file says:

Well, the problem is that Thread::Tie (one of the prerequisites) is failing its tests. According to CPAN Testers, Thread::Tie has never passed its tests on Perl 5.10.1, and has 6 failure reports. The couple I checked look just like yours.
You can use cpanm -n to skip running the tests and install anyway, but there's no guarantee that the resulting module will work properly. It's possible that the problem is in the test scripts rather than the module itself, but that's not the most likely explanation.
You can try reporting a bug in Thread::Tie, or try debugging it yourself.
Thanks for reporting.
I've just uploaded new versions of all modules involved. Fortunately, most of the problems were actually in the test-suites and not in the code itself.
Please let me know if this does solve it for you or not.

The error is that the tests of the module don't pass successfully.
One thing I would try first is to try to install the module with cpan or cpanminus (cpan Tkx or cpanm Tkx). You (or the Makefile.PL) may have missed something that could be causing this error.
I see you already opened a bug report on CPAN. You can see in cpantesters that this module has the tests broken (you could check with your particular Perl version) and there is also another bug report from 5 years ago reporting broken tests for the very same version that's currently on CPAN (1.09).
Considering this I think your options is to skip the tests and see if it works for your purposes.
I recently adopted Tkx and published release 1.10, which allows installation to proceed despite the t/tcl.t test 18 failure.
The test failure appears to have been caused by unexpected but minor changes to error message formatting in newer Tcl.pm. Pending the issue actually being fixed, it is not something which Tkx should abort installation over.
There's already a packaged version of Tkx for Ubuntu, so all it should take to get Tkx and any of its dependencies is:
sudo apt-get install libperl-tkx

There's already a bug report for this. The issue hasn't been fixed yet, but somebody uploaded a patch that you can try:
Reason seems to be the POSIX module, which returns many "-1" values where Number::Format->new() expects missing hash keys... I was able to successfully test and install by using the attached patch as a workaround. But it might be smarter to fix this problem in the POSIX module.
Any time a module fails to build, you should check the CPAN Testers report. The tests are failing for Perl 5.20.0 on Window x64, so it's not just you.

Is there another module I can use similar to the Time::Out? Besides alarm?
Per the Time::Out documentation, it does not work for blocking IO on windows. This means - at a minimum - that the tests will fail. You can skip the tests from the cpan shell using force install Time::Out, but this may mean that it doesn't work for your purposes.

Don't install modules from CPAN if you have a packet manager. This may cause problems with update or with other modules.
Just use:
apt-get install libcgi-pm-perl
OR, if you can't find the package with needed module, you must make a package first ( you need to install dh-make-perl package for that)
sample of creating debian/ubuntu package:
wget http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/M/MA/MARKSTOS/CGI.pm-3.63.tar.gz
tar -xvpf CGI.pm-3.63.tar.gz
cd CGI.pm-3.63/
dh-make-perl
debian/rules binary
and install it with
sudo dpkg -i packagename.deb
