• Which Vim version, including major.minor.patch? (As of this writing,
the latest version is 8.2.577)
• The Perl filetype-plugin ($VIMRUNTIME/ftplugin/perl.vim) hasn't
changed much recently AFAIK — the version on the master repository is
dated "Last Change: 2015-02-09" which I find weird.
• The function whose name starts with <SNR>6_ was defined in the 6th
script sourced in that particular run of Vim. Next time you get that
error, check the output of the :scriptnames command for the script
with the same number as the one following <SNR>. The function was
defined in that script with <SID> instead of <SNR>6_ at the start of
its name.

I'm adding the address listed as "maintainer" of the Perl ftplugin as
a CC, let's hope someone is still listening at that address.

Best regards,
Tony.
