Maybe not so serious.  It might be a bit late now, but take a look at 

http://perl.apache.org/docs/1.0/guide/troubleshooting.html#RH_8_and_9_Locale_Issues

I know nothing about the Apachetoolbox, I've never used it, but I'd be
surprised if there's no documentation with it.  Perhaps you'll need to
reinstall the Apachetoolbox now you have a new Perl.  I take it the new
Perl is now the default in your system?  So if you for example you type

perl -V

it tells you about 5.8.1?

You could just build Apache, mod_perl etc. by hand instead.
