Hi all friends, I am developing a cgi-perlscript using `-wT` to get an as secure as possible script.
One function is to print something, I am using the Printer.pm for.
When jumping to that sub, tain alerts, because the module is trying to do a `bind($sh,$there)`. The $sh variable comes from the perlscript being imported from the new printer instance defined there.

My question is: Can I disable taintcheck for that module or sub or their variables and keep taintchecks for the rest of my script? If so, how? Note, that I'd rather like to do unusual things in my script than modifying someones module.
If not, this would mean, that I had to rewrite the module, or keep it out, or don't use taint at all. These alternatives are not so good...

so, give me enlightment, because I haven't found a hint, yet.

there are no silly questions killerhippy
