-d finds the first perl version where a module has been released by
date, and not by version number (as is the default).
--diff
Given two versions of perl, this prints a human-readable table of
all module changes between the two. The output format may change in
the future, and is meant for humans, not programs. For programs, use
the Module::CoreList API.
-? or -help
help! help! help! to see more help, try --man.
-man

-v lists all of the perl release versions we got the CoreList for.
If you pass a version argument (value of $], like 5.00503 or
5.008008), you get a list of all the modules and their respective
versions. (If you have the "version" module, you can also use
new-style version numbers, like 5.8.8.)
In module filtering context, it can be used as Perl version filter.
-r lists all of the perl releases and when they were released
If you pass a perl version you get the release date for that version
only.
--utils
lists the first version of perl each named utility program was
released with
May be used with -d to modify the first release criteria.
If used with -v <version> then all utilities released with that
version of perl are listed, and any utility programs named on the
command line are ignored.
--feature, -f
lists the first version bundle of each named feature given
--upstream, -u
Shows if the given module is primarily maintained in perl core or on
CPAN and bug tracker URL.
As a special case, if you specify the module name "Unicode", you'll get
the version number of the Unicode Character Database bundled with the
requested perl versions.
