As a point of reference, I've found a problem when running the 
optimize_mythdb.pl script to keep the mysql tables in order. I had this 
in a cron entry thinking it was checking every day. The problem is on 
both my 64 bit machines. My 32 bit machines are fine.

/usr/bin/perl: symbol lookup error: 
/usr/local/lib64/perl5/auto/DBI/DBI.so: undefined symbol: Perl_Istack_sp_ptr

It's not much to do with the script but with the Perl installation. Been 
trying over the last couple of months to resolve without much luck. So 
you might want to check if the database tables haven't gotten checked 
and optimized recently.
