IMHO, Module::CoreList can be helpfully here, since Module::CoreList is 
part of the main perl distribution and already contains info of the
modules that suppose to be on the Perl core distribution.

Indeed, can be tricky to just assume that all people distribute
Perl core as it supposed to be distributed(like Module::CoreList think).
but there are some more tests involved.

actually I'm packaging this as a Dependency for Test-Apocalypse (ITP #514390)
so, there are people already using this module :)

Cheers.
