pod regression in 5.18.1

I'm trying to compile several modules, and am getting the following
errors in parsing pod:

# Assemble.pm (1582): Expected text after =item, not a number
# Assemble.pm (1586): Expected text after =item, not a number
# Assemble.pm (1590): Expected text after =item, not a number
# Assemble.pm (1595): Expected text after =item, not a number

it looks like syntax like:  =item 0, =item 1, =item 2

is no longer allowed, which breaks quite a few things. Especially
considering pod uses this syntax to document return statuses for functions,
which can be numbers.
