Sounds fine by me.
But in case anyone ever comes asking for proper handling with taint mode,
here's a quick way to reproduce a system where it fails, using a Gentoo chroot:
wget
http://distfiles.gentoo.org/releases/amd64/autobuilds/current-stage3-amd64-nomultilib/stage3-amd64-nomultilib-20140529.tar.bz2
mkdir gentoo-chroot
tar -xjf stage3-amd64-nomultilib-20140529.tar.bz2 -C gentoo-chroot
mount --rbind /dev gentoo-chroot/dev
mount --bind /proc gentoo-chroot/proc
cp /etc/resolv.conf gentoo-chroot/etc/
chroot gentoo-chroot /bin/bash
source /etc/profile
sed -ie 's/^#en_US/en_US/' /etc/locale.gen
locale-gen
cpan Inline
