I do mean both. When auto-fill-mode is turned on in cperl-mode, the function
cperl-do-auto-fill is called and this one calls cperl-fill-paragraph, which
in turn calls (after mangling the next comment line) fill-paragraph.

well I guess I have to debug fill-paragraph then. The only thing I know is
that it works in 21.3

not really. As I said in my previous post, filling works (at least for the
example), if I use fill-paragraph instead of cperl-fill-paragraph.
