Dear all,

Has anyone done a workaround or similar when using Pod::Usage and Taint Mode, with the --man option?

I keep getting on Linux (Fedora Core 5, perl 5.8.8): 

Insecure dependency in system while running with -T switch at /usr/lib
+/perl5/5.8.8/Pod/Usage.pm line 547.

Script code has: 
pod2usage( -verbose => 2 ) if $options{man};

[download]
and offending Pod::Usage code is: 
539     ## Now translate the pod document and then exit with the desir
+ed status
540     if ( !$opts{"-noperldoc"}
541              and  $opts{"-verbose"} >= 2
542              and  !ref($opts{"-input"})
543              and  $opts{"-output"} == \*STDOUT )
544     {
545        ## spit out the entire PODs. Might as well invoke perldoc
546        my $progpath = File::Spec->catfile($Config{scriptdir}, "per
+ldoc");
547        system($progpath, $opts{"-input"});
548     }
549     else {
550        $parser->parse_from_file($opts{"-input"}, $opts{"-output"})
+;
551     }
