Subject: Parser Issues
Pod::POM - 0.15 RedHat 7.0 Perl 5.6.0 There appears to be a problem with the parser in Pod::POM. It does not handle sequences such as: C<< $foo->bar >> which should be parse as: C<$foo-E<lt>bar> Instead it CARPs a warning about '>>' and parses arbitrary text. This bug can be seen if you try to view perlre.pod using Pod::POM::View::HTML - observer how lines 911 through 916 are displayed in the HTML View. I looked at your parser and found that it doesn't use Pod::Parser. Have you considered rewriting your parser to use this module?
This appears to be fixed in 0.17
