This test failure is still present. Today I attempted to install this distribution against perl-5.27.10 on FreeBSD-11.0 using 'cpanm' as the installer. Here is an excerpt from the build.log:

Dubious, test returned 2 (wstat 512, 0x200)
Failed 2/2 subtests

Generally speaking, tests of POD formatting should only be run by a CPAN library's author or maintainer during author testing. Otherwise, failures like these prevent the library from being installed by other users. In particular, other CPAN distributions which depend on this one cannot be tested or installed unless this one passes all its tests.
Thank you very much.
