I suspect it is a bug in font-lock.el: in the copy I have
`font-lock-fontify-anchored-keywords' uses the variable `limit' to set
text-property 'font-lock-multiline.  I would think it should have used
not this estimate from above, but the actual value of (point) after
doing the `while' loop for this purpose.

This bug may cause a major slow-down, although I do not know why it
shows only with two buffers in CPerl mode...

It is hard to work-around this bug; one needs a way to calculate the
limit in advance, which may be tricky.  I need to think more about
this...

Thanks,
Ilya
