check Getopt::Long!
I just did. I cannot find anywhere how to tell Getopt::Long to parse the command line as wished. 
GetOptions(
      't=s' => \ our $target,
      'b=s' => \ our $buildtype,
      'r=s' => \ @releases
  );

That requires multiple -t, -b and -r arguments. From a command line of 
    -r foo bar baz -b dog cat -t pony

[download]
it will put foo in @releases, dog in $buildtype, pony in $target, and leave the rest in @ARGV. 
use Getopt::Long;

our @releases;
GetOptions(
      't=s' => \ our $target,
      'b=s' => \ our $buildtype,
      'r=s' => \ @releases
);

print "Target: $target\n";
print "Buildtype: $buildtype\n";
print "Releases: @releases\n";
print "ARGV: @ARGV\n";
__END__
Target: pony
Buildtype: dog
Releases: foo
ARGV: bar baz cat

Not at all as wished.

I don't know any module that will parse the command line as was wished, but it shouldn't be too hard to roll your own.
