I found the problem.  There is a bug in $VIMRUNTIME/indent/perl.vim.
The author tried to match braces with this:

    [(){}\[\]]

The trouble is, \[ is not an escaped [ because there is no need to
escape a [ within []. Thanks for the clear description of the problem.

It was in javascript syntax as well.. it might be in other perl derived or regex syntax files, since vim's syntax is rather unique...(something I have asked for a switch to be added to the search and replace for -- to let vim use straight perl-syntax with no exceptions, unfortunately, my desire for something so obviously of benefit to a wide range of people, got nothing but detractors or people suggesting it can be done with a script...(and pointing me
at one!, .. will have to try it but don't have high hopes...)...


sigh.
