A year or so, podlators require to specify POD encoding if the POD is not
ASCII or ISO-8859-1. Future versions will default to CP1251. I recommend to
write:

=encoding utf8

above first POD line.

Also for some time, podlators have pretty verbose diagnosis and complains on
things which older versions did not complain. The actuall output depends on
how old your perl or CPAN installation is.
