And somehow, it seems just a bit... wrong to be using awk for this.
Somehow perl just seems more appropriate.
But whatever gets it done. "There's more than one way to do it" and all
that.

So why not write it down so we can copy and paste it?
And I suggest to use mkdir -p to get rid of the useless errors.
#!/usr/bin/sh
cd /usr/lib/perl5
find -name \*.pm |awk '{dir=$1; html=gensub("\.pm","\.html","",dir); \
system("pod2html " $1 " | tee " html); \
sub("\.","\/usr\/local\/doc\/perl5",dir); \
sub("\/[[:alnum:]_-]*.pm","",dir); \
system("mkdir -p " dir); \
system("mv " html " " dir "/")}'
# Happy Perl'ing;)
