Package: emacs21-el
Version: 21.4a-1
Severity: normal

I sometimes get an "Unbalanced parentheses" error with the m// operator.
The only way to get rid of it is to quit Emacs and restart it. Here's a
way to reproduce it:

1. Start Emacs in CPerl mode.
2. Type the 4 characters: m!<!
3. Go left twice and type BackSpace to remove the first "!".
4. Enter the character "!" again.

Then if I add characters at the end (after m!<!), I always get the error:

End of `m! ... !' string/RE not found: (scan-error Unbalanced parentheses 2 6)
