I just tried the following experiments. I first created a ~/file1.v
from your example, then copied the default verilog.vim to my ~/.vim
hierarchy:

cp /usr/local/share/vim/vim73/syntax/verilog.vim ~/.vim/syntax

1.
vim -N -u NONE --cmd 'syntax on' file1.v

The file was syntax highlighted.

:scriptnames
1: /usr/local/share/vim/vim73/syntax/syntax.vim
2: /usr/local/share/vim/vim73/syntax/synload.vim
3: /usr/local/share/vim/vim73/syntax/syncolor.vim
4: /usr/local/share/vim/vim73/filetype.vim
5: ~/.vim/syntax/verilog.vim
6: /usr/local/share/vim/vim73/syntax/verilog.vim

2.
Created a file2.v identical to file1.v with Hello changed to
Goodbye.

Moved my ~/.vimrc asided and created a new one containing only

syntax on

Executed

vim file1.v
:split file2.v

Both buffers are highlighted.

Something in your configuration is keeping file1.v from being
properly syntax highlighted. It works for me with my normal
configuration and with a minimal configuration with just "syntax
on". We just need to find out what in your configuration is keeping
this from working for you.

One approach is for you to start with a minimal configuration, get
highlighting to work, then add pieces of your normal configuration
until highlighting stops.

Why are you using your own verilog.vim instead of the default
$VIMRUNTIME/syntax/verilog.vim?

Regards,
Gary
