Simply do it from within perl directly (without shelling out), then you won't be plagued with segfaults.

    Thanks for the reply but i am trying to join the fasta sequence lines to remove the spaces after each line in the input file for each chromosome in the multi fasta file using the unix command inside the script.However it works for maximum 40000000 lines but if i give 61913917 lines as an argument, it gives me segmentation fault.Thanks
