Subject: perldoc -f shows bizarre headers
In the perldoc that comes with 5.14.2, there are no headers in the output. In the perldoc that comes with 5.16.0, there is a header like this: VSHH293VZV(1) User Contributed Perl Documentation VSHH293VZV(1) This looks like a mistake. What is the purpose of including a header if it just contains a random temp file name?

Thanks for the report. This will be fixed in a future version.

I just put 3.19_01 on CPAN. I'd appreciate it if you'd test it out and let me know what you think. Thank you. Mark
