In the lastest snapshot (20Jan04), there is a problem in config.nmake:

POD2MAN=$(SH) pod2man
POD2HTML=$(SH) pod2html

should be:

POD2MAN=pod2man
POD2HTML=pod2html



That dates back to

    revision 1.69
    date: 2003/12/22 21:34:13;  author: ulfl;  state: Exp;  lines: +3 -3
    calling pod2man and pod2html indirectly through the bash

I think that change was made because in some environments

    POD2MAN=pod2man
    POD2HTML=pod2html

*didn't* work.  (Windows doesn't, as far as I know, know about "#!".)

Hi Yaniv!
Yes, the changes were made, as on the usual win32 platforms, a perl interpreter is *not* in the PATH.
So a call to pod2man will fail, as the cmd.exe (or whatever command.exe) will not try to resolve the !/bin/perl statement at the top of the file. 

Could you describe the problem you have?
