I just installed perl-support.vim, and I can't reproduce the
crash with gvim-7.4.463 (GTK2 GUI). Maybe it has been
fixed since the version of Ubuntu-14.04 (7.4.052).

Does it happen with any Perl file that you try to open?
Can you try with: gvim -u NONE -U NONE ?
And if it does not crash, try to narrow down what triggers
the crash in your .vimrc.

Can you try after compiling the latest vim (7.4.463)?
