Yes... but you need to run perl from outside of safe.... two ways to
do this... add a global tag... or add a global sub. I threw a global
tag out here a few weeks ago called [realperl] that allowed you to
eval perl code outside of safe. I access the mv tags directly from the
minivend data structures... you may prefer to use the function mvend
provides to read tag data... something like tag_data(tagname)... that is
probably not right.
