A couple of options:

- Subclass CGI::Application, only replacing the subroutine that
  generates the warning. Make your new routine identical, except for
  generating the warning. :) 

- Patch CGI::Application to either remove the warning, covert into
  an message that appears in a debug mode, or create some kind 
  option so that people can have it turned on our note.

Personally, it seems to me that that if changing the run mode is
"feature" of the software that is expected to be used, then it shouldn't
generate a warning.
