Pod2html trys to create href link, if possible.

Pod2html do it as (in process_L):

  * scan the destination file and put every label into hash.
  * if the entry is found in hash, create href link.
  * otherwise, create <EM>..</EM>.

|Form is another problem.

I like POD way due to its simplicity.
We should consider about makeing label (e.g. <a name="xxx"> etc.) too.
