I still can't reproduce this, using the above .emacs file and
perl5db.pl. A month or two ago, we fixed such a bug dealing with a
bad interaction between menu-bar updates and stealth fontification;
stealth fontification should no longer trigger menu-bar updates.
Could you just check that you don't have any old files (e.g. of
jit-lock) hanging around in your CVS copy?
Assuming it's not that, please see if it's due to stealth
fontification by changing jit-lock-stealth-time to nil and see if the
problem recurs. Also, try setting jit-lock-stealth-time to 2 and see
if the problem occurs more quickly.
