Hi all,

I'm just testing Graham Barr's Scalar::Util module. This module 
exports a function tainted(), which allows a boolean test whether or 
not a variable is tainted.

On a Unix machine, the following two tests should be ok, when run 
with the -T switch:

my $key = (keys %ENV)[0];
$var = $ENV{$key};

print "not " unless tainted($var);
print "ok 3\n";

print "not " unless tainted($ENV{$key});
print "ok 4\n";

Under MacPerl, these tests are not ok.  An  environment variable 
seems not to be tainted. Is this assumption true? In the docs I can't 
find any information on this topic.

Any pointers/ideas are much appreciated.

Thanks.

Best regards,

--Thomas
