Taint mode help

One of my cgi scripts is throwing:

Insecure dependency in chdir while running with -t switch at
d:/usr/lib/perl/lib/5.8.2/File/Find.pm line 814., referer:
*cgi-bin/upload.pl

I know how to fix this if it were in my code but in the supplied
modules? I must be missing something :-)

I am not passing anything to find. I chdir to a hard coded directory
and then find(&wanted, '.');
