[Perl 5 syntax highlighting] delimiter used in extended regular expressions displays wrong

[daxim]

If a comment contains a / the highlighting colour indicates that the regex has ended, whilst it continues on subsequent lines. Reported by mberends on IRC.

 if ($line =~ m/
     ^       # beginning of line
     (.+)
     \/      # this is for the forward slash /
     (\S*)
     \s*     # drops all spaces
     (.*)
     $       # end of line
  /x) {
     print "$1 : $2\n";
 }

This is still bug even in Scintilla 2.27. I think we need to fix it in Wx::Scintilla.

this is still the same in r18883

Initial investigation shows that this is a LexPerl?.cxx Scintilla bug that is also present on Notepad++. Maybe it is time to fix it there :)
