Thanks for digging into this, and supplying a corrected Makefile.PL
I hope that this means that I can get something pretty much correct first time.

Right. I'm hoping that the branch nicholas/migrate-Pod-converters will work on VMS. I decided to adapt make_ext.pl to do the dirty work for pod*.PL, rather than attempting to import and fix the various distributions' Makefile.PLs

(That's http://perl5.git.perl.org/perl.git/snapshot/d3bc6aa63a6a5b0e.tar.gz
for anyone who wants to play along, but doesn't have git installed)



I grabbed a snapshot of this branch as of 467132B and it issues the following warnings during the build:

Making all in cpan/Pod-LaTeX

similar for Pod::Parser and Pod::HTML. The build proceeds so I'm not sure how much (if any) damage that's actually doing. Have to run so haven't looked into it yet.
