Hi Slaven, Thanks for the report and the continued work on making CPAN better. I don't know if it is worth fixing this issue since the module hasn't been updated since 2001 and, as far as I know, isn't used by anyone. I may do it just to stop the cpantesters failure messages but at this point I'm not sure if it is worth the effort. John

The fix is trivial and I attached it as 0001-escape-left-brace-RT-115140.patch Also I made a second patch to increase to 0.04 (and I removed the VERSION section from Pod to minimize maintainer effort). Regards, Slaven
