wget.pod not formatted for pod2man/perl 5.18

I ran into compile errors with wget 1.14 and Perl 5.18:

Code: 
/usr/local/bin/pod2man --center="GNU Wget" --release="GNU Wget 1.14" wget.pod > wget.1
wget.pod around line 2105: Expected text after =item, not a number
wget.pod around line 2110: Expected text after =item, not a number
wget.pod around line 2116: Expected text after =item, not a number
wget.pod around line 2121: Expected text after =item, not a number
wget.pod around line 2126: Expected text after =item, not a number
wget.pod around line 2131: Expected text after =item, not a number
wget.pod around line 2136: Expected text after =item, not a number
wget.pod around line 2141: Expected text after =item, not a number
POD document had syntax errors at /usr/local/bin/pod2man line 71.
gmake[2]: *** [wget.1] Error 255

I thought I had the pod2man errors figured out with some patches for OpenSSL 1.0.1e/Perl 5.18, however on making the same fixes to wget.pod as worked in the linked solution above, I've found my command with diffto be inadequate to the task:

# diff -u wget.pod.orig wget.pod > patch-wget.pod

and copying the patch to /usr/ports/ftp/wget/files/patch-wget.pod yields

Code: 
===>  Applying FreeBSD patches for wget-1.14_2
No file to patch.  Skipping...
1 out of 1 hunks ignored--saving rejects to doc/wget.pod.rej
=> Patch patch-wget.pod failed to apply cleanly.
=> Patch(es) patch-NEWS patch-doc__wget.texi applied cleanly.
*** [do-patch] Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/ftp/wget.

I'm not sure what is up, but this should make wget.pod compatible with Perl 5.18

The file to modify is files/patch-doc__wget.texi. Furthermore, in the header of a context diff(1)(), you must correct the path name of the file where will be the patch(1)() applied.
