There are not that many utilities, however, many of the utilities have
all kinds of flags and features which started at various versions.
Looking for "starting with gdal" on http://gdal.org/ogr2ogr.html gives
a hint at that complexity.  "starting with" or "GDAL >" on
http://gdal.org/gdal_translate.html ....  And if there are changes in
formats (or proj4) that interact with these flags... Coherent
presentation would require a huge table or chart and maybe still be
confusing.
