podlators 2.4.1 released

This is long-overdue, and still doesn't address the various character set
and encoding problems, but it at least fixes a bunch of other bugs.  I'm
going to try to rethink the UTF-8 problem next.

Changes from the previous release:

2012-05-30  Russ Allbery  <rra@stanford.edu>

	* VERSION: podlators 2.4.1 released.

	* lib/Pod/Man.pm (parse_file): Override the Pod::Simple method to
	set output_fh to STDOUT if it's not already set.  (#77530)
	* lib/Pod/Text.pm (parse_file): Likewise.

2012-05-26  Russ Allbery  <rra@stanford.edu>

	* t/basic.t: Embed PID in file names to avoid conflicts when
	running the test suite in parallel.  (#62083)
	* t/color.t: Likewise.
	* t/filehandle.t: Likewise.
	* t/man-heading.t: Likewise.
	* t/man-options.t: Likewise.
	* t/man-perlio.t: Likewise.
	* t/man-utf8.t: Likewise.
	* t/man.t: Likewise.
	* t/overstrike.t: Likewise.
	* t/pod-parser.t: Likewise.
	* t/termcap.t: Likewise.
	* t/text-encoding.t: Likewise.
	* t/text-options.t: Likewise.
	* t/text-perlio.t: Likewise.
	* t/text-utf8.t: Likewise.
	* t/text.t: Likewise.

	* t/man.t: Add another test for anchor text based on an RT ticket.
	* t/text.t: Likewise.

	* lib/Pod/Man.pm (start_document): Request details on PerlIO
	layers to look for the UTF8 flag, which is not a layer in its own
	right.  Based on a patch from Leon Timmermans.  (perl #76440)
	* lib/Pod/Text.pm (start_document): Likewise.

	* lib/Pod/Man.pm (preamble_template): Fix handling of the F
	register when processing multiple documents at once.  .IX will now
	continue to be defined for documents after the first, and the page
	number will not be reset at the start of each document.  Thanks to
	Nicholas Clark for the analysis.  (perl #103202)

	* lib/Pod/Man.pm (start_document): Remove CONTENTLESS parser state
	between documents.
	* lib/Pod/Text.pm (start_document): Set CONTENTLESS in the parser
	if the document contained no content.
	* scripts/pod2man: Report an error and remove the empty output
	file if the input file had no content (if it did not exist, for
	example).  Exit with non-zero status if there were any errors.
	Based on a patch by Dmitry Smirnov.  (#75099)
	* scripts/pod2text: Likewise.

	* lib/Pod/Man.pm (cmd_l): Format the URL text before comparing it
	to the anchor when deciding whether to show separate anchor text.
	This avoids spurious mismatches between the URL target and anchor
	text because the anchor text was already formatted and has (for
	example) hyphens escaped.  (#76396)
	* t/man.t: Test L<> formatting codes with URLs containing hyphens.

	* lib/Pod/Man.pm (preamble_template): Define \*(C` and \*(C' to
	the empty string when processed through troff to avoid groff
	warnings.  Avoid warnings from checking the F register (used to
	enable index output) when running under groff.  Patch from Bjarni
	Ingi Gislason.  (#75434)

2012-02-14  Russ Allbery  <rra@stanford.edu>

	* Makefile.PL: Stop removing pod2man and pod2text on make
	realclean, left over from when they were *.PL scripts.  (#74848)

2011-12-20  Russ Allbery  <rra@stanford.edu>

	* lib/Pod/Man.pm: Fix the ASCII fallback string for the AE
	ligature to use the string that was actually defined.
