einhverfr has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Fellow monks;
I am not quite sure what to do here, but I released a new version of LaTeX::Encode and I started getting cpantesters failures. All failures occur on Perl 5.12 and below, and they are all taint-mode failures. Perl 5.14 and higher work fine.
The stack trace looks like this:
Insecure dependency in require while running with -T switch at /home/s +and/src/perl/repoperls/installed-perls/perl/perl-5.8.9/5da8/lib/5.8.9 +/Test/Builder.pm line 1526.

The error is again being raised from deep in the test suite, but I have other modules which properly work with use_ok here. What could be different here?
