[Bug 524042] [NEW] cperl-mode syntax highlighting is broken

[Andreas Raster]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: emacs-snapshot

When using cperl-mode that comes with the emacs-snapshot-common package
in Ubuntu Karmic syntax highlighting is not working correctly. Sometimes
it seems to work for a few lines but as soon as something changes
chances are that it stops working. Most of the time syntax hightlighting
is broken, only very simple stuff like literals and comments are
highlighted.

I could fix it by installing the most recent version from
http://github.com/jrockway/cperl-mode (not sure how 'official' that git
repo is, but it fixed my problem and I found the link on the Emacs
Wiki).
