Does anyone here who uses mason and vim know how to get around this "glitch" with syntax highlighting in vim: 
% elsif (exists $ARGS{change_subj}) {
%   $db->do(<<"DONE");
%       update docdirs set title='$ARGS{title}', subj_id='$ARGS{subjid
+}', 
%       pages='$ARGS{pages}'    where id='$ARGS{change_dd}';");
%DONE

[download]
is all fine and works but vim runs fowl of %DONE and the highlighting is all screwed up after that. I looked thru perl.vim and found the section dealing with here docs, but I obviously cannot figure it out because inserting a few ".?" did not work for me. I tried taking it right out but -- surprise surprise, then the here doc syntax is an error to vim and the highlighting after that is affected.

If anyone has a quick fix for this I'd be oh so grateful...
