I think they'll need individual fixes, since they depend on the handler for each token advancing the buffer pointer to provide enough context.

The attached improves the Missing operator line, it doesn't try to handle '0@$foo' but helps for '0@foo'.
The newline for the syntax error line isn't specific to @, it occurs for other similar synax errors too:
$ ./perl -e '0$foo'
Scalar found where operator expected at -e line 1, near "0$foo"
(Missing operator before $foo?)
syntax error at -e line 1, near "0$foo
"
Execution of -e aborted due to compilation errors.
