Pod-Simple-3.24 broke Regexp-Assemble-0.35.

Offhand I cannot decide why. The diagnostics it leaves is just

#   Failed test 'POD test for Assemble.pm'
#   at t/00_basic.t line 36.
# Assemble.pm (1582): Expected text matching /\s+[^\*\d]/ after '=item'
# Assemble.pm (1586): Expected text matching /\s+[^\*\d]/ after '=item'
# Assemble.pm (1590): Expected text matching /\s+[^\*\d]/ after '=item'
# Assemble.pm (1595): Expected text matching /\s+[^\*\d]/ after '=item'
# Looks like you failed 1 test of 327.

But grepping does not reveal anything I'd consider wrong:

% perl -nle 'print "$.:$_" if 1576..1601 and /^=/' Assemble.pm
1576:=over 8
1578:=item 0
1582:=item 1
1586:=item 2
1590:=item 4
1595:=item 8
1601:=back

With Pod::Simple 3.28 the regression still exists.
