Perl 64 5.10 bug with Vista 64 Premium and Intel q9300?

OS: Windows x64

My perl script gets fails on exit randomly like once every 2-4 hours.

I'm using Vista 64 Premium on Intel q9300 2.5Ghz and when it fails silently windows pops up a report "this error to microsoft screen" and my batch file can't continue until somone cancels this :/

There is no reason for it as the script works fine on Perl 5.8 XP 32 on Intel P4 Celeron 2.5Ghz 768Mb running 24x7x365.

See attached picture for proof...

I tried 5.8.8 64bit same thing :/

I'm guessing as it's random

I'm guessing as it's random it may have something to do with my 4gb RAM + 256mb graphics memory resulting in a memory range slightly larger than 32 bits. Maybe some perl internal is still working in 32bits?
