FWIW, I found that turning off Perl's malloc() prevented segfaults in mod_perl 1 on Solaris. This was about 5 years ago. I guess I shouldn't be surprised that this is still an issue. I personally never use mymalloc for this reason.
I thought that this was supposed to have been fixed by better-tuned makefiles in 5.8.x., though.
