I think it's noteworthy that the goal of that module is not to be able to parse all of Perl, just the subset of "standard Perl". So for example, it doesn't allow -bareword, stringy eval, unquoted hash keys on the left of the fat comma, and several more, but not because of technical limitations of the parser, but for policy reasons. I've suggested that the technical and policy based restrictions be disentangled to allow for easier porting of codebases to a parseable Perl, but I'm currently not sure when or if that might happen.

Of course also noteworthy is RPerl, which I believe implements its own parser.
