Mapserver returns blank pages

I wasn't actually using php mapscript in the mapfile that gave me
segmentation faults. Strangely, I got the map to display on a Sun machine if
I removed all references to true-type fonts and relied only on bitmap fonts
for my labels. Even more strange is that when I moved the same file to a red
hat server, mapserver simply hangs. No error message in either the browser
or the apache error logs, just hanging. The same thing happened when I tried
running the mapfile with shp2img. Has anyone else experienced this problem?
Could this be a bug in one of the third party libraries that mapserver
relies on? Or more likely a problem in how we code our mapfiles?

Thanks,
Matt
