Um... I can open 3 shapefiles using PHP MapScript (4.0 and 3.6) without 
any problem.  Perhaps it's a Perl-specific issue, or it's realted to the 
order in which your script does things?

If you have a way to reproduce this, then you should probably file this 
in bugzilla, with sample data and script to reproduce, MapServer 
version, OS, etc.
