With this patch (using unmodified pod2man from Perl 5.6.0), I get a
reasonable manpage from gcov.texi. When I try to extend the manpage to
cover the whole of gcov.texi, I notice:
* It doesn't remove @node lines.
* The line
=head2 Brief description of C<gcov> data files
comes out oddly in the nroff output. This would seem to be a pod2man
problem: at the end of the C<...>, the standard font rather than the font
used in the header gets restored.
