Perl mode gets the colors bad in the latter:
my $good = XML::LibXML->load_xml( string => q{<div class="clearfix">});
my $bad  = XML::LibXML->load_xml( string =>q{<div class="clearfix">});
And for multi-line q{}'s, one had better even give a whole newline or two
instead of just a space...
emacs-version "25.1.1"

I can reproduce this on Emacs 26.2.

The issue is that only the '"clearfix"' part gets colored as a string
in the second ($bad) example.

I don't follow.  Could you please expand on this point?

Best regards,

Me neither. Next time I should add an example.

Subject: Bug#25098 is fixed in source, closing the report
Date: Fri, 11 Jun 2021 15:58:01 +0000

Version: 28.1

perl-mode now detects quote-like operators if they appear immediately
after a "fat comma" =>.  I'm closing the bug report.
