On checking out fresh source, I had another attempt. Rob you were correct in
guessing that it would appear in the makefile. I get the following line:
# --- MakeMaker htmlifypods section:
POD2HTML_EXE = $(PERLRUN) "-MActivePerl::DocTools" -e
"UpdateHTML_blib(installdirs => "$(INSTALLDIRS)")"
POD2HTML = $(POD2HTML_EXE)
On checking my previous makefile which successfully compiled, it had:
-e "Pod2HTML(installdirs => "$(INSTALLDIRS)")"
Tried to recompile the previous version which had successfully compiled and
it put the same entry in the makefile.
So not sure why this has occurred as the only thing I have updated was Perl,
from 5.8.7 to 5.8.8.819 dated 29 Aug 2006 (noted that Glenn installed build
817, but was able to compile it without the 'UpdateHTML_blib').
