Inline and -T

[Sisyphus]

Hi,

There's a bug report about this at
http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=13084

It would be nice to come up with a fix, but I'm not 100% sure of what the 
correct behaviour should be. (I've not personally used -T at all, and 
probably never will.) I gather that the following script should work:

### script1 ###
#!/usr/bin/perl -T

use Inline Config =>
   UNTAINT => 1,
   SAFEMODE => 0;

use Inline C => <<'EOC';

void greet() {
    printf("Hello World\n");
}

EOC

greet();
##################

And that the same script should also work if I replace the "SAFEMODE =>0;" 
with "DIRECTORY => 'custom/location';"

Is that about it ?
Does anyone have an example of a simple Inline::C script that has UNTAINT 
turned on and SAFEMODE turned off, but that should still fail with the 
"Insecure dependency" error ?

Also some pointers to the sorts of things that SAFEMODE should detect might 
be handy - though I guess I can probably uncover that for myself in the 
Inline source. (One thing it apparently does is force the use of the 
DIRECTORY option.)

I also intend to deal with:

TYPEMAPS, MYEXTLIB using relative paths.)

compiler.)

Comments welcome.
