Hi,
I was trying to use aspell for Perl code, but it seems to be broken. I am running \
`aspell --mode perl check test.pl`, where test.pl looks like this: ```
# Greeet the user:
print "Hello, wrold!"
```

I get the chance to correct "wrold", but "Greeet" was skipped. Using the "comment" \
mode doesn't work either. 

The "ccpp" mode, for example, works as expected. It seems to me like this line in the \
`perl.amf` file is not working: `OPTION add-context-delimiters \# \0`

My aspell version is "@(#) International Ispell Version 3.1.20 (but really Aspell \
0.60.7-20110707)". I'm running Ubuntu 18.04.

Has anyone successfully used the Perl mode recently, or is this a known bug?

Greetings,
Richard Ulmer
