This should not be an issue. I am using ScriptAlias instead of mod_perl 
more often than not, and without problem.

First time I see this problem happening... As far as I can tell, there 
are two places in the code that are tied to a timeout: reading the 
remote document and parsing it with onsgmls.

A few tests and questions that may make it easier to figure out the 
problem:
- are you using a firewall, and if so, are you confident that it is 
well configured?
- from the machine where you installed the validator, can you fetch the 
documents you are trying to validiate (using e.g GET 
http://www.example.org/mydoc/)
- did you install the sgml-lib with the validator?
- did you install onsgmls, and if so, which version? (onsgmls -v)
