Well, 

    $ENV{ PATH }  = '/bin:/usr/bin';
        # or whatever you need
    $ENV{ SHELL } = '/bin/sh' if exists $ENV{SHELL};

my system doesn't have a /bin/sh nor /bin nor /usr/bin. I hate modules that want you to edit the global module source code to provide reasonable behavior.

I'd expect a CGI::Safe module to untaint parameters (defaulting to only /(\w[-\w.]+)/ but allowing alternates). Based on what this does, I see no point in having CGI::Safe to inherit from CGI.pm. I'd rather move the new() functionality into import() and have your module work via: 

use CGI qw( :standard );
use CGI::Safer( POST_MAX=>1024*1024 );
my $q= CGI->new();

And no, that "r" isn't a typo. (:

Update: I'm not suggesting that people should use both the OO and functional interfaces to CGI.pm at the same time. I'm just giving examples of the two cases in one short bit of example code.
