Sometimes you need to check whether a binary is a GNU or a normal
version.  For example, GNU tar has the -z option, and GNU cp has the -l
option, and GNU make is Just Plan Weird.  Any suggestions for how to
name a module that would check this?

It would be a very simple wrapper around:

  `$binary --version` =~ /(gnu|free software foundation)/i

I'm thinking something like ExtUtils::CheckForGNUbinary.
