Section 3 pods should probably be generated from blib/lib and 
blib/arch, and section 1 pods should be generated from blib/script.  
This is because theoretically, the process of copying lib/* to 
blib/lib/* and the like can do all kinds of transformations on the POD. 
  For instance, in Mason we can transform some special P<> tags to 
normal POD.
