I've managed to go further, and remove Search::Xapian from the picture:

$ perl -MImage::Magick -MUUID -e 'UUID::generate($uuid)'
Segmentation fault

And here too the order matters, as this works:

$ perl -MUUID -MImage::Magick -e 'UUID::generate($uuid)'

Above was on amd64 stable.

Reassigning to perlmagick, which I agree with Joey is the most likely
culprit.
