Subject: Pod::Readme incorrectly processes L<svn://...> URLs
As my latest project is under heavy development, I point readers to the Subversion repository where I'm working on it, so that they can see what's happening. On the off chance that they can do something with it besides manually copy-and-paste it into a "svn co" command, I made it a link with the L<> formatting code. Much to my dismay, I happened to check my auto-generated README file, and the result of the L<> tag is the text 'svn:', with the rest of the URL truncated. After checking the relevant code, it seems that Pod::Readme is misinterpreting the L<> tag as a manpage reference.

Looks like this would have been fixed by 0.09, but this ticket was never actually closed. I'd have thought I'd have investigated this ticket and closed it when I took over maintainership of Pod::Readme though, so sorry about that :| Closing it now.
