Subject: 24.3.50; Perl mode composed symbols not visible

When I visit a Perl source file from `emacs -Q', the Unicode
replacements for `=>' and "::" are not visible (they appear the same as
a single space character would). The `->' character is not
affected. This happens on Windows XP. I think it does not happen on
Windows 8 or Linux (but I will check when I get the chance). Doing "M-x
set-variable perl-prettify-symbols RET nil RET" (or using
customize-variable) doesn't cause the character(s) to redisplay
differently (even if I kill the buffer and visit the file again), but if
I do (setq perl-prettify-symbols nil) from `emacs -Q' and then visit
the Perl source file, the non-prettified versions are visible.

Great, closing.

I guess so, but since I don't use Perl mode, I will defer to someone
who does to do that.

Thanks.
