A recent discussion on this list concluded that variables are currently 
best written in POD as simply $foo, not C<$foo> (nor I<$foo> as used to 
be recommended in perlpod).

OTOH, functions are perhaps better written as C<foo()> because this 
causes them to be linked when converted to HTML.

So I've applied parts 1. and 4. above as change 25112.  Thanks.
