The problem: your code is beginning "too soon"; ie. the "p" in "program"
should be in column 8. Try inserting enough space and you'll see the
error highlighting go away.
The more interesting question is why does subsequent editing show no
error highlighting? That's because some dialects of fortran use
"fixed-source" (ie. code doesn't start until column 8) and some use
"free source" form. The syntax/fortran.vim file examines the first 500
lines for "signs of free source format". So, when you first began
editing, fortran.vim assumed f95 and fixed-source. Subsequent editing
of the file let fortran.vim determined you wanted "free source" form.
You might want to specify what dialect of fortran you're using, too
(choices are: F elf f77 f90 f95). See :help fortran.vim for more
information.
