Thank you for the patch. Pod-Usage is included in the Perl 5 core distribution but is maintained upstream on CPAN. As a matter of fact\, this same defect was reported in Pod-Usage's bug tracker almost a year ago to the day. See​:

https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=114697

I'm going to close this ticket but will add an entry to CPAN 114697 noting that the error still exists.

Thank you very much.
