Stephen,
The problem seems to come from HTMLLIBPODS setting in Makefile.PL.
It puts all the pod conversion into one command line, instead it should
do POD2HTML one by one for each conversion.

If I add the following I can bypass this problem.

######################################################################
# HTML FILES
######################################################################
$opts{'HTMLLIBPODS'} = {};
#$opts{'MAN1PODS'} = {};
#$opts{'MAN3PODS'} = {};

Also in order to pass the entire make on win32, you need to change the
postamble because
DOS can not understand #! kind of things. In addition, perldoc will bomb out
on line 759 due to 
*.pod, *.pm not found because I disable the HTMLIBPODS by the above command.
We need to fix these.

all ::
        \@\$(PERL) sbin/perldocs \\
