I can't help you specifically on this problem, but let me try to add my little generic 2 cents here:

By doing steps one and two you should be able to find something that can ***possibly*** be the cause for the problem.
  1. Check what are the differences between the machines that hang and the machines that doesn't.
  2. Check the similarities between the machines that hang. Then check it between the machines that doesn't.
  3. Upgrade ActivePerl, since it's already on version 5.8.3
Hope it helps a little.
