It always does with mod_perl.  It might be something wrong with webmux.pl.
Try checking the logs (including the RT log).

In my config.pm, line 238 is inside the die sub.  It should write some
logs to the rtlog.  The rtlog is either !!RT_LOGFILE!! or whatever you set
up in the Makefile - dependent on how new your version of RT2 is (did you 
pick it up from the CVS?) :)

I'm running perl 5.6.0 - troubles all the way.  I'd recommend anyone to
wait for 5.6.1.  I also skipped mod_perl, I didn't like the Apache to
coredump :)
