[Dxspider-support] Spider continues to freeze and/or restart on its own

I can't notice a pattern here.

I did see that perl 5.10.1 was installed.  I tried to install 5.22.1...
looked successful... ran through the script... but the version still says
5.10.1.  I'm not sure if a reboot or restarting perl is necessary.
