Test::Taint throws a warning every time it's loaded, on perl 5.10, and the maintainer isn't doing anything about it.
btw, why do you report it on bmo? That's not our module.
Attached patch v1 (obsolete) — Splinter Review
Here's a fairly simple fix.

Right now, I think that this will only go on trunk, since it wouldn't be good of us to change Requirements on people mid-branch.

I'm not sure what your question about bmo is.
Summary: Test::Taint throws a warning every time it's loaded, on perl 5.10 → Test::Taint throws a warning every time it's loaded, on perl 5.10, and makes errors into test failures
My question was: why reporting a bug on bmo which is not a Bugzilla bug? You already reported it to rt.cpan.org. IMO, the bug summary should be: "stop using Test::Taint, because it throws warnings on Perl 5.10".
Oh. Well, I figure the bug is that it throws warnings and loads Test::More, our fix for it is to stop using it. I usually figure bug summaries should describe the problem, not the solution. The checkin message can describe the solution.

Or we could relnote in 3.6.1 that we plan to replace Test::Taint by Taint::Util in 3.6.2, so that people already know about this story well before upgrading.

We don't need this anymore--the RPC::Any bug supersedes this.
