Swap problems would manifest itself in other forms, such as other log entries, and kernel bugs that result in this are pretty rare in -RELEASEs. The fault address of 0x68 is somewhat suspect. What version of Perl is this? 5.001 was known to have some pretty major problems, particularly with regards to memory allocation. 5.003 fixes them up.
