Update the release_managers_guide.pod with the new command usage,
and remove the todo item
numbers but different contents, e.g.:
$ cd ~/some-perl-root
- $ ./perl -Ilib Porting/cmpVERSION.pl -xd ~/my_perl-tarballs/perl-5.10.0 .
+ $ ./perl -Ilib Porting/cmpVERSION.pl -xd . v5.10.0
then bump the version numbers of any non-dual-life modules that have
changed since the previous release, but which still have the old version
Then run again without the -x option, to check that dual-life modules are
also sensible.
- $ ./perl -Ilib Porting/cmpVERSION.pl -d ~/my_perl-tarballs/perl-5.10.0 .
+ $ ./perl -Ilib Porting/cmpVERSION.pl -d . v5.10.0

=head2 Migrate t/ from custom TAP generation
Many tests below F<t/> still generate TAP by "hand", rather than using library
