Thanks for letting us know. You can find the maintainer of the syntax
file in the header of the appropriate syntax .vim file. According to my
locale vim runtime files, it is Nikolai Waibull, who maintains the
netrc.vim file:


,----[ head -n5 ~/local/share/vim/vim72/syntax/netrc.vim ]-
| " Vim syntax file
| " Language: netrc(5) configuration file
| " Maintainer: Nikolai Weibull <now@bitwi.se>
| " Latest Revision: 2006-04-19
`----

I am CC'ing the maintainer to make sure, he receives your info. You
should however check, whether your change isn't already included in the
latest runtime files available at http://www.vim.org/runtime.php

regards,
Christian
