You can use the color_region_hook to change the color of these lines
with set_line_color(). Then you can use get_line_color() in the
indentation code to skip these lines. See ruby mode
(http://jedmodes.sourceforge.net/mode/ruby/) for an example. In fact
if you switch to ruby mode and then switch back to perl mode, the
syntax highlighting should work.
