Possible problem with VMS perldoc

Just finished building, testing and installing perl 5.12.3 for OpenVMS 
Alpha V8.3. Everything appeared normal throughout. Afterward I was Just 
plinking around with the perl documentation utility and noticed that it 
does not appear completely functional:

$ perldoc "perldoc"
No documentation found for "perldoc".
%RMS-E-FNF, file not found
$ perldoc "-D" "perldoc"
Ending switch processing.  Args are [perldoc] with 0 errors.
perl_root:[utils]perldoc.com => Pod::Perldoc v3.15_02

Formatter class Pod::Perldoc::ToText successfully loaded!
Will format with the class Pod::Perldoc::ToText

Is this expected? has anybody else experienced this or can somebody else 
repeat the problem? I haven't looked at the source to see what file it 
is looking for. Maybe there is something missing in the install step?

This particular problem is not exactly high priority. But, I thought 
somebody in the OpenVMS PERL group might be interested.

The installation appears to execute simple perl scripts properly anyway. 
I haven't yet tried anything complicated. That will have to wait till 
tomorrow.

Any wisdom would be appreciated.
