It's a bug, logged at http://bugs.activestate.com/show_bug.cgi?id=38313

It seems that if a bareword contains an underscore, the colorizer
doesn't recognize it as a bareword and colors it as an
"identifier", which is terminology for any name in Perl that doesn't
start with a $, %, etc, or is a keyword.

Thanks for finding it,
