Subject: Extraneous blank lines from Pod::Text

Extraneous blank lines from Pod::Text

I get the impression that eventually all of the Pod stuff currently
distributed with Perl is going to be phased out in favor of something new,
but in the meantime pod2text has always generated an extra blank line
after literal text (indented text).  The following patch to Pod::Text
appears to fix that, although I may be missing something since I don't
understand why the removed line was ever there to begin with.
