The perl-beginners list isn't the most appropriate forum for this
issue -- dealing with the interpreter core dumping and how to
troubleshoot that particular situation is well out of "beginner"
territory -- but if you can give us a bit more information, we may be
able to suggest better places for you to ask these questions.

Along those lines, some questions:

* Is there a specific program or piece of code that's causing the core
dump? (I.e., what are you doing to make Perl dump core? -- what's the
minimum amount of code needed to produce this segfault?)

* Can you reproduce this core dump on another machine? (I.e., have you
ruled out that there's some hardware issue at the bottom of this)

* It looks as if this is the Perl 5.10 that ships with RHEL6 (or maybe
CentOS?) -- could you confirm that? If you build your own copy of
Perl, does the segfault still happen?

thanks,
john.
