I had this problem before compiling something else with Perl, and the
problem turned, IIRC, that I had a threaded Perl, which is experimental
for Perl, and it caused a lot of problems for me. I think Red Hat comes
with Perl built with threads. You will need to get the source for Perl
and rebuild it without threads.
