Hi Achim,

You are right. When I remove PERL_UNICODE a correct the html is correct. 
Correct title and correct content, all nicely in UTF-8.

I added PERL_UNICODE=SDA, because of perl 5.18 (on Linux). Perl 5.18 
pod2html produces a wrong html title (double encoded?) when I don't set 
PERL_UNICODE. I find it weird that I have to set PERL_UNICODE for perl 
5.18 while I'm in an UTF-8 environment. I also don't like all the 
ampersand codes that perl 5.18 produces instead of UTF-8. The output of 
perl 5.14 pod2html is much better.

Thanks for your help.

best regards,

Erwin
