Hi.
Something really odd is happening to me. For example, if I do `perldoc
-v $_` I get the information about $_ as expected, but whenever I try
`perldoc -f sort` I get this message:
/No documentation for perl function 'sort' found./
It seems that perldoc doesn't find any Perl builtin function. However,
when I do `perldoc perlfunc` the pod document is diplayed correctly. How
can this be possible? Isn't the information about the sort function
picked up from perlfunc.pod?
I also set PERLDOCDEBUG to 1 and run `perldoc -f sort` and here is the
output:

I'd really appreciate some help with this issue, because I actually
can't solve it by my own.
