Yes, I was using the stock RH perl. I did try recompiling 5.8.0 with debugging support, as you suggested, with no luck. I then tried recompiling other versions of perl (like 5.8.0 RC2, RC1, 5.7.3), with and without debugging support, also with no luck.
Finally, I just grabbed a 5.6.1 (since this all worked on my other systems with 5.6.1) and put that on there. I compiled without debugging support (and just used almost all the defaults), recompiled mod_perl and Apache, and that seems to have done the trick. I still don't know what the problem is, whether it's with perl, Apache::DB, RH, me, my cat... Anyway, I'll have to use this workaround until I have more free time.
