I've figured it out. But it seems difficult to fix right now.
The problem is that in perl-mode some syntax-table text-properties are set
in font-lock-syntactic-keywords, while others are set in
font-lock-syntactic-face-function, and that font-lock+jit-lock applies
font-lock-syntactic-keywords to "all" the buffer but only applies
font-lock-syntactic-face-function to the displayed part of the buffer.
So some of those properties can be missing if you start display from
somewhere else than the beginning of the buffer. Hmm...
