I was expecting ./podme --help to produce *the "SYNOPSIS" section, along 
with any section entitled "OPTIONS", "ARGUMENTS", or "OPTIONS AND 
ARGUMENTS"*, as per the Pod::Usage manual page. Instead it produces nothing

plm at thunk:~/work/prj/bin> ./podme --help
plm at thunk:~/work/prj/bin>

OS at home is OpenSuSE 10.3, perl is 5.8.8, Pod::Usage is 1.33.
Don't have the details of what is at work.

Some can avoid it. Geniuses remove it.
