New description:

 When INN 2.4.5 (but not 2.4.3), is compiled with perl support using Perl
 5.8.9 (but not 5.8.8 or 5.10.0), innd crashes at startup.  Both reports
 come from users with FreeBSD (one running 6.x and one running 7.1-p2).

 gdb of the innd core shows:
 {{{
 #0  0x281bbd90 in Perl_doing_taint () from
 .../perl5/5.8.9/mach/CORE/libperl.so
 #1  0x281bbdd4 in Perl_sys_init3 () from
 .../perl5/5.8.9/mach/CORE/libperl.so
 #2  0x08090e74 in PERLsetup ()
 #3  0x0805c088 in main ()
 }}}
