A quick and dirty example/fix:

<< "Graphics`Legend`"
pp = Plot[Sin[x], {x, -Pi/2, Pi/2},
     DisplayFunction -> Identity, PlotStyle ->
      Hue[0.6]];
pm = Plot[Cos[x], {x, Pi/2, 3*(Pi/2)},
     DisplayFunction -> Identity, PlotStyle ->
      Hue[0.8]];
g = Show[{pp, pm}];
ShowLegend[g, {{{Graphics[{Line[{{0, 0}, {1, 0}}]}],
       {Sin[t]}}, {Graphics[{Line[{{0, 0}, {1, 0}}]}],
       {Cos[t]}}}, LegendPosition -> {1.1, 0},
     LegendSize -> {1.1, 0.5}, LegendShadow -> None}];

HTH,
Jean-Marc
