What is the simplest way to determine for a given CPAN module (a) whether it is part of the Perl core; (b) when it became part of the core (i.e., which version of Perl); and (c) which version is considered core?
Richard Clamp's marvelous Module::CoreList.
Has a handy command line tool, too:
$ corelist File::Temp File::Temp was first released with perl 5.006001
So simple, it's positively Lazy!
And for the even lazier, who can't even be bothered to install a module:

And for the truly lazy who think that clicking on an URL and filling out a form is too much work, with WWW::Mechanize you could... oh, wait...
