Hmm... it may be probs with your semaphores, but I'm a FreeBSD head, you'll need a Red Hat person to help methinks...

ipcs -bS may list the number of semaphores allowed by your kernel
ipcs -s may list what's in use, check that there isn't a huge NSEM value.
If there is, and appears to be from a dead process, ipcrm can be use to remove it. Read the man pages for both on your system, usage may be different.

And check you're not out of diskspace.

What's SysVSemaphoreLocker.pm doing at line 63?
