It looks like the error is because install/mode.rs doesn't use uucore::mode on Windows, but doesn't have an alternate implementation of parse for Windows to use.

Does it make sense to break up parse into Windows and non-Windows variants the same way chmod is broken up? Or maybe something has to change at the caller to make sure Windows code doesn't rely on parse?
