Actually this bug got fixed in the 3.3.1 release - the relevant paragraph
of cppopts.texi was removed as part of a backport of manual cleanups from
the mainline (revision 1.15.8.3).  So though the problem could reoccur
elsewhere as the underlying cause isn't known - arguably this PR should
stay open to document the existence of such a bug somewhere in the
texi2pod/pod2man combination, to be fixed either in texi2pod.pl or in
stricter version requirements on pod2man - this particular instance of it
is no longer present in releases - so this can no longer count as a
regression.
