I had that same Pod2man problem on a stock RH9 system a couple of weeks ago. The (much appreciated) advice I got was to:
Download the tarball.
Unpack it - (tar -xzvf <filename>)
change to the dir it unpacked in, and instead of running "perl Makefile.PL" , run
"LANG=C perl Makefile.PL"
Worked like a charm for me.

Hello,
I'm trying to install the latest SA on Redhat 9.
I type in (as root): perl -MCPAN -e shell o conf prerequisites_policy ask install Mail::SpamAssassin
Everything seems ok for a while, then this comes up: CPAN.pm: Going to build J/JM/JMASON/Mail-SpamAssassin-2.55.tar.gz
Checking if your kit is complete... Looks good
Warning: I could not locate your pod2man program. Please make sure, your pod2man program is in your PATH before you execute 'make'
Writing Makefile for Mail::SpamAssassin Makefile:92: *** missing separator. Stop. /usr/bin/make -- NOT OK Running make test Can't test without successful make Running make install make had returned bad status, install seems impossible
Any ideas as to what may have caused it? Do I need to install pod2man first? If so, where do I get it?
