Would anyone have any objection with this? It seems fairly reasonable since
it feels a bit heavy handed to run this check on every install. Also, how
difficult would it be to get out a new release up to CPAN I'd be willing to
volunteer to do this if I knew the correct process.


I agree that it's a terrible pity we've got low cpantesters scores because of a broken pod checker. OTOH, good, working documentation is a virtue. So I'm +0 on the idea of patching the doc tests.

I'm -1 on releasing a new CPAN dist just for this fix. Once we graduate (which is hopefully days away), getting a new release out should be much easier (one less VOTE to take) and we could just do a real 0.3.1 release to catch the doc fix and any others we've accrued. The benefit of keeping CPAN releases in sync with official Apache releases outweighs the benefit of a nicer cpantesters report. IMO.
