That's a parenthesis. A brace is one of these thingies: }.

Your message arrived in my inbox as pure text/plain--no HTML

Yes, depending on what you think is "fixed".

With the $VIMRUNTIME/syntax/sh.vim that comes with vim 7.3.189, I
see the error. With a newer syntax/sh.vim, however, I see different
highlighting and no error. I don't remember if this syntax/sh.vim
was posted to the vim_use or vim_dev list or if it was posted as a
script to vim.sf.net. The header is

" Vim syntax file
" Language: POSIX-compliant shell script
" Maintainer: Radek Nadstawny <trueradzian@o2.pl>
" Last Change: 2011 May 25

With the new syntax file, the outer two sets of parentheses are
highlighted as shExpansion and the inner set is highlighted as
shArithmeticOperator.
