VIM Syntax Highlighting - new vim does it wrong?

Hi there,

I am using VIM 7.3 on my new development PC. On the old one, I used VIM 7.0. But something has changed in syntax highlighting (see https://www.dropbox.com/s/hd3skcnidhbb89b/vim_colors.png). Till now, I only recognized this when programming in HTML/Mason. The new VIM puts a red background to the beginning of every line which begins with an "if" statement. This is pretty confusing. The old one didn't do this.
Using Kompare, I verified that the syntax definition file is the same on VIM 7.3 and VIM 7.0, so this must be caused by something else. Does someone have a hint?

Another question: My Cursor is hidden when moving (for example, holding down on of the arrow keys). It's visible again when the movement stops. But again, this seems only to be a with HTML/Mason. In pure Perl scripts, this is not a problem.
