I'm moving to a new machine and installing all the perl stuff I use,
including ack. I'm installing via cpan, and make test is failing.
Scrolling through the output, it looks like most (if not all) failures
are because of the output:

Insecure $ENV{BASH_ENV} while running with -T switch at t/Util.pm line 381.

when the tests aren't expecting any output or some other error.

I'm using the standard perl (v5.18.4) that comes with Mojave, and I'm
running as a non-privileged user with things set up so anything I
install goes in a local directory I own (if that matters).

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Brian
