No. Suport for L<name|scheme:...> was added to perlpodspec in 2009. Pod::Simple has supported it for years; Test::Pod started officially allowing it in v1.41, IIRC. Relevant changes: https://github.com/theory/pod-simple/commit/1e61e819debf9c7c23907d7bb9e37855665fd595 http://perl5.git.perl.org/perl.git/commit/f6e963e4dd62b8e3c01b31f4a4dd57e47e104997 https://github.com/theory/test-pod/commit/ae6a44894eda4fd09fb412d837efe543628cd7d6 Discussion: http://code.activestate.com/lists/perl-pod-people/1393/ Best, David
