Very trivial patches.

Man pages don't have any notion of external links and there isn't
enough information for pod2html to resolve the links for manpages in
the "See Also" section of the man pages.  As a result running pod2html
generates a bunch of warning messages just emphasizes/italicizes the
text.  

This patch just changes the link (L<name>) command to an emphasizes
(I<name>) command.  The net result is the same, but you don't get the
warnings when generating html docs.

At some point in the future someone might want to do the work to get
the links to generate correctly, but until then this will shutup
pod2html.
