Sorry for the delay getting back to you : since I wiped and re-installed the
machine, I created a virtual machine with a 32bit image, so that took a little
time. And, guess what? I can't reproduce the problem in the VM.
Also, it only appeared in mod_perl, not perl.
The bug may have to do with a cpan upgrade I did on the machine, that generated
quite a bit of errors, and messed my system somehow.
