While applying one of my test architectures (arm32) complained:
man/xl.cfg.pod.5 around line 885: '=item' outside of any '=over'
POD document had syntax errors at /usr/bin/pod2man line 71.


I'm going to add this little fixup:
diff --git a/docs/man/xl.cfg.pod.5 b/docs/man/xl.cfg.pod.5
index 6ab9a6e..ded3f78 100644

 Select the hd disk type (ide|ahci).
