The first Perl man page 'perl' has a list of each man page and it's content:
This section is what you're interested in:
Internals and C Language Interface
perlembed Perl ways to embed perl in your C or C++ application
perldebguts Perl debugging guts and tips
perlxstut Perl XS tutorial
perlxs Perl XS application programming interface
perlclib Internal replacements for standard C library
functions
perlguts Perl internal functions for those doing extensions
perlcall Perl calling conventions from C
perlapi Perl API listing (autogenerated)
perlintern Perl internal functions (autogenerated)
perliol C API for Perl's implementation of IO in Layers
perlapio Perl internal IO abstraction interface
perlhack Perl hackers guide
I personally find it easier to combine all the core man pages into a single
document and search for what I want using vi(m).
The man pages can be extracted from the pods using Pod::Text - I have a script
that you can use/modify: http://dbecoll.tripod.com/txt/perlmanpl.txt
