In the language editor, look for the following for the Perl language:
    name = "string.unquoted.qq.perl";

Change
    begin = "qq([^\\(\\{\\[])";
to
    begin = "qq([^\\(\\{\\[\\|])";
                           ^^^

There is a note in the svn log regarding pipes (|) not working,  
however.  There's also a note about "arbitrary" quote characters, but  
that obviously isn't implemented in the current (r1220) revision of  
the syntax.
