OK, it looks like it is a 64-bit build but they intentionally put the
perl stuff under /usr/lib anyway.  So that was a red herring.  One
thing I notice in comparing your output against what I see on Fedora is:

There's no such #define mentioned in the Red Hat configuration ... I
wonder what that does?  I wouldn't normally think this significant,
but given that we suspect the problem is somehow related to threading,
it kind of draws the eyes ...

OK.  For the moment I confess bafflement.  You had offered access
to your system to probe more carefully --- once you've built up
two or three stuck processes again, I would like to take a look.
