There's a few.  I don't know the spec (perldoc perlpodspec) but My
guess is =\w+ starts a pod section and =cut ends one.  There can be
other ^=\w+ inbetween.  

And there's also markup within the pod, which would need to be
skipped.

I'll look at the Aspell docs a bit more, but I was just wondering if
anyone has done this yet.
