Override "new", get the object from the SUPER::new and interrogate the
object before returning it.

Or override "cull_args" and inspect @ARGV before calling
SUPER::cull_args, perhaps?

Parameter processing is a complex given the potential for PERL_MB_OPT,
.modulebuildrc files and command line arguments.
