Oh, that's strange. It's installed by the perl package on my system, so
I had assumed it was a standard part of a Perl install.

Looking in the archives, apparently people use
perl -MModule::CoreList
but I see that that module, at least in Debian, is distributed even less
widely than corelist(1) itself, because it's a separate package -- even
though it seems to be part of Perl's core. Also, the module's interface
appears less helpful than `corelist -a`.
Let's leave it at that, then. Your original is a step forward in any
case.
