P5P would like ! perldoc being the CPAN backport of a
core utility, it's important to work with the perl5 porters.

Could you integrate the patches that have been committed to bleadperl
since version 3.14 ? There are two of them:

Change 27878 on 2006/04/17 by [EMAIL PROTECTED] 'Patch to fix RT #31227: 
perldoc'
Change 26191 on 2005/11/22 by [EMAIL PROTECTED] 'Subject: Pod::Perldoc patch 
(Fw'

You can find them at http://public.activestate.com/cgi-bin/perlbrowse

That would be nice (as long as Pod::Index isn't required
by perldoc, but that could be negotiated.)
