[Bioperl-l] bug #1396: *.PL to *.pod conversion is broken, makebailsout

[Hilmar Lapp]

This does work with for me on Mac OSX, perl 5.6.0. Note though that if 
you comment out the definition of @array I get the exact same error 
that I got initially.

Also note that in the .PL files the label is in double quotes, not 
single quotes.
