;; Major edit. Summary of most visible changes:

;; b) Handles multiline subroutine declaration headers (with comments).
;; (The exception is `cperl-etags' - but it is not used in the rest
;; of the mode.)

;; and with legacy `font-lock').

;; (3.5x to 15x [for different CPUs and versions of Emacs] on the
;; huge real-life document I tested).
;; e) New bindings, edits to imenu.
;; f) "_" is made into word-char during fontification/syntaxification;
