> weird color-highlighting for @arrays and %hashes

Some background:

The "faces" (emacs lingo for text style) for arrays and hashes are specific to cperl-mode, while all other faces are standard (c-mode has no need for sigils)

This means if you load-theme another "theme" (the default is commonly known as "fruit salad") standards like font-lock-constant-face are covered, while cperl-array-face is often forgotten and still looks weird.

I think I customized cperl-hash-face etc at some point to be derived from standard faces like font-lock-variable-name-face

But recently I got bitten again when giving a talk, where reveal.js was taking the highlighting of code from emacs and arrays looked "weird" again.
