SINGLELINE_MASK and MULTILINE_MASK

The Perl5Compiler docs say "SINGLELINE_MASK and MULTILINE_MASK
should not be used together".  However, I think it is perfectly
valid to use the Perl /s and /m modifiers at the same time.
Despite their names, SINGLELINE_MASK and MULTILINE_MASK are not
opposites and I can see where you would want to combine their
effects.  Is there a real problem with this?
