CGI.pm Doesn't Delete CGItemp Files Automatically

More late night server maintainence...

I noticed the /tmp drive on my server was very full, so had a quick peek. It was full of large CGItemp files.

It turns out the files I'm accepting using for upload using CGI.pm aren't deleted automatically from the temporary directory as the documentation suggests.

When you're dealing with a lot of large uploads, this can be a problem.
