Looks like our libcurl is too old (3.x). I started looking into LWP::UserAgent, but the SSL headers are not on the server, which I assume rules out just about every other https module. :( :/
So, I returned back to figuring out why shelling out is causing problems, and it looks like a large part of my problem was a sleep 300 that was supposed to be a sleep 3 for testing and the rest was my $? check, which doesn't work as expected when forking (or maybe it's tied to signal handling). The downsides of not having a second pair of eyes to spotcheck the code. Thanks for the help though! Trying to get Net::Curl and then LWP::USerAgent working let me return back to the code with a fresh set of eyes. EDIT: For some reason, nothing gets logged the first run through the main while(1), so the sleep makes it look like the script is hanging, so I ended up chasing the wrong issue.
