Does

:match Error /\%(\<c\)\@<=\w\+/

give you what you're looking for? Alternatively, if they're a fixed
list of keywords, you can join them together something like

:match Error /\%(\<c\)\@<=\(mount\|umount\|open\|close\)/

You can adjust the color group to something other than Error, as
that's just what I chose by default.
