I haven't noticed any issues, but I don't make huge usage of here documents,
and I tend towards non-standard bracketing for regexps, which means I do
explict 'm's for matching. Those two factors might explain why I think it's
satisfactory.
OTOH, IIRC, there is a setting for how 'robust' the syntax parser tries to
be; it's a time/speed tradeoff. I _think_ the default may be less than
completely stringent. If you're really interested, M-x customize RET
cperl-mode should tell all, at least in XEmacs.
