Well, that really looks like a kernel oops. Sure there's not one

No, there is no message from the kernel at all. The only messages
regarding this is
ohci_hcd 0000:00:02.1: wakeup

You could try 'ulimit -c unlimited' and run gdb on
/usr/bin/perl and
the resulting core file; that might give more clues.
