One workaround is to use scratchpad values and a second [calc] region:

[calcn]
    #
    #   make decisions here and set up some argument scratches
    #
    $scratch->{somearg} = 'somevalue' if $CGI->{whatever};
    undef;
[/calcn]

[calc]
    #
    #   call the unsafe tag from here, passing all arguments
    #   (even if some or all of them are blank)
    #
    my $result = q{[runtime-require-tag somearg="[scratchd somearg]"]};
    #
    #   process the result here, in the separate calc/perl region.
    #
    undef;
[/calc]
