[Bioperl-l] bp_fetch.pl genbank example doesn't work anymore

Well, two things then:

1. the POD example should be updated to one that obviously works (I did 
this just now, 
https://github.com/bioperl/bioperl-live/commit/e59237909386e672f8b0e22004cc5e4196221321)

2. It would be nice to translate NCBI's useless error message to 
something intelligible.

I'll settle for number 1 for now though.
