Honestly, you're going to have to provide more information (code samples, what you've done to debug the problem, etc) if you expect to receive a useful reply. Segfaults are generally pretty rare with Perl, but there are several possible condition in which they can arise. See How (Not) To Ask A Question

Which version of perl? perl -v to find out.
Which version of SuSE would be interesting as well.
It might also be worth comparing perl -V on a system that fails and one that works (these are the compilation options).
Curious that the same scripts work on other machines, same perl version? Do any scripts work on that machine?
When did this start happening? Have you made any changes to the perl installation?

Perl Version which is use in the current set up 5.8.0. But the one which i am getting compiled is 5.8.3.
| [reply] |
Has your 5.8.3 version ever worked?
| [reply] |
Does this mean that you are trying to install 5.8.3 on the SUSE system and getting seg-faults during the installation process? (And which release of SUSE is that? You still haven't said.)
Have you tried compiling/installing other source-code packages on this system lately? If there are seg-faults while trying to do things with "config" and "make" and so on, it could be that there's something wrong between your standard system libraries and standard utils.
If you can't figure out the problems on your own, you really do need to provide some concrete details for the rest of us: what specific commands have you run, what's the last thing that happens before the seg-fault, what error messages appear, if any, before the seg-fault? We can't guess these things, let alone suggest a solution -- you have to be clear and explicit.
