gf in Perl does not work on Some::Package->some_function

[Tomáš Janoušek]

Hello,

it's quite common to use the syntax Some::Package->new to create new instances
in Perl, but using gf tries to open a file named Some/Package-.pm, which
fails. Hence, I suggest adding this to ftplugin/perl.vim:
setlocal isfname-=-

(Also, ftplugin/perl.vim in vim 7.3 contains a set isfname+=: instead of
setlocal. Is that ok?)

Regards,

I cc'ed Andy Lester. As he is the maintainer of that file he has to decide.

Yes. 'isfname' is global only.
