have you done about it?

Is brownout detect enabled?  If not try that and see what happens.  Also
enable the startup timeout if this PIC has one.  Try putting a small cap on
MCLR, like 100pF.  Even if these things don't fix the problem, any change i=

symptoms may shed light on what is going on.  Watch Vdd on a scope and see
what's really happening.

These are all obvious things to try when you suspect a too slow MCLR or Vdd
