Has anyone run into a problem simlar to that shown below? If so does anyone know of a work-a-round? Thanks in advance!

Under Perl 5.8.0, I encounter insecure dependency error for PerlIO.pm with the following script when executed under Solaris with the real uid != effected uid: 

#!/bin/perl

use XML::SAX::Pipeline;
use XML::Filter::BufferText;

my $filter = XML::Filter::BufferText->new();
my $machine = XML::SAX::Pipeline->new($filter);

$machine->parse_file(\*STDIN);

Error Message: 

Insecure dependency in eval while running setuid at /opt/perl58/lib/5.
+8.0/PerlIO.pm line 22.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.

Other than using perl's -U option, I cannot figure out how to get around this problem. It appears that the root of the problem is with PerlIO.pm's use of a tainted variable inside a "require" statement, at line 22. This problem seems to exist with the latest version of Perl 5.8 as well (I downloaded and unpacked it, just to see if there was a difference, and there isn't).
