If you can send a reply-all to the list, you certainly can send a new question,
can't you? Hijacking threads *is* considered rude/ignorant/dumb by some.

That said, Pod::Perldoc seems to be part of perl-5.8.[8-9] on my systems, so unless 
you're doing some nonstandard things with this package, I suggest you just pkg_delete 
the bsdpan package and get on with it.
