Harald, shouldn't it be reversed (old<->new) like the one below? using 
diff(3) is a match better way to send patches :)

The Pod::Man module v1.15 and pod2man 1.4, coming with stock perl-5.6.1 do 
support --section option. What's your POD::Man and pod2man versions? Are 
you sure it's a real 5.6.1? please post the output of 'perl -V'. Thanks.
