Tom's Taint.pm has never worked for me. I just tried installing it
again and it failed a bunch of tests (in both 5.005 and 5.6.0, but
different tests) I never knew your Taint existed since they mask each
other in the CPAN shell. Your tests fail with with an "Insecure
$ENV{PATH}" in IO::File. (Yeah, I know. patches welcome)
Anyhow, however these extra tainting functions are implemented is fine
(as long as they work). The simplest thing would be to just merge and
patch up Taint.pm and distribute it with perl6.
PS Your Taint.zip archive... something is very odd. All the filenames came
out lowercase.
