It seems that the debian version includes a patch to Pod/Text.pm, which changes the umlauts there to some nroff (?) notation, e.g. -=item auml: E<auml> รค, +=item auml: E<auml> \[:a], I don't see what the purpose of this change. tkpod may display the original Pod correctly. My version of perldoc changes the umlaut to ae in the original version; with the change "\[:a]" is displayed literally.
Sorry for the delay in responding to this. i will look into it to remind myself why I had to change it. I believe it has to do with generating lintian errors in the other form but I just can't remember right now.
It would help me to figure this out if you could point me to a module which has this character in it so that I can see how it behaves. I presume that this is within the tkpod browser.
