Pod::Coverage (which Test::Pod::Coverage uses) already distinguishes between imported subs and ones you've defined yourself, so unless Date::Manip is doing something weird (which it isn't), this shouldn't be a problem.
I only get that particular error message (requiring 'My::Module' failed) if the module can't actually be compiled; nothing to do with the pod. My guess is Date::Manip isn't installed properly on your system. It's not a core module, so perhaps you just don't have it at all.
