I've usually seen this sort of thing with mismatched SSL library 
versions - Apache mod_ssl, many Business::OnlinePayment modules, 
DBD::mysql all pull in an SSL library.  If one of those is compiled 
against a different libssl than the others, you'll get segfaults when 
you try to run B:OP transactions or look at RADIUS usage (via 
DBD::mysql).
