That reminds me of another question. Is there any pod utilities fixed
so that it accepts bytes with MSB set?  Well, maybe it is not a good
idea to fix Pod::Man because for most cases [gn]roff don't work.  But
the fix in Pod::Html is definitely welcome (But does it take Encode to
be finalized?  Idunno).

The blead Pod::Text so far works for me, as well as the new podlator suite
in general.

  Awright!  Okay I will fix pods so that they use L<> naturally.
