Subject: Maypole is not taint-safe
Turning on taint checking by adding -T at the start of beer.cgi results in the following error message: undef error - Insecure dependency in parameter 1 of DBIx::ContextualFetch::db=HASH(0x87a4590)->prepare_cached method call while running with -T switch at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.6/Ima/DBI.pm line 391.

I don't think this is very urgent, but may look at in 2.12 which would be a good time to audit the application properly.
