I don't see this problem in blead.
[root [at] freebsd3 /home/tony/dev/imager/git/Imager]# ls Makefile.PL
Makefile.PL
[root [at] freebsd3 /home/tony/dev/imager/git/Imager]# perldoc Test::More
(success)
I suspect the changes in version 3.15_12 of Pod-Perldoc (see
http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/MALLEN/Pod-Perldoc-3.17/Changes) fixed this.
