So I think I understand why SpamAssassin runs in taint mode: you wouldn't want
joe random user to include new code in their PERL5PATH, then trick spamassassin
or spamd into running that code under whatever user the administrator has
configured it.

At the same time I think that what I'm requesting is not inappropriate.  There
*are* necessarily unconventional configurations, and the administrator of the
system ought to be able to use PERL5LIB or a similar mechanism.

What about allowing a PERLLIB-like specification inside init.pre?  That file
ought to be only accessible to administrators, and it would allow them to
include the appropriate directories without opening the door to abuse by their
users.
