I want to use the cgi-bin.pl routines to validate and interpret the
arguments passed in via the URL.  Removing the 'require' and replacing it with

	use CGI qw/:standard/;

does get rid of offending reference, of course, but at the expense of not
being able to use any of the cgi-lib.pl code.

Can you explain what I need to do here with something more useful than
"Gack!"?

I'm trying to work with a single file reference here -- I'm not *trying* to
include a module, Dan.

Any ideas?
