BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/local/cs/bin/vc-dwim line 55. Apparently Pod::PlainText is no longer part of the standard Perl installation on RHEL 7. I don't know what RHEL package to install to get it, unfortunately. I do see from: http://search.cpan.org/~marekr/Pod-Parser-1.63/lib/Pod/PlainText.pm that Pod::PlainText is considered legacy, is being removed from "modern" Perl releases, and that they recommend Pod::Simple instead.
