Sending this to vim-dev since I got no reply on the vim user list, and
because I guess it's fair to call the above a bug (vim 7.3.875).

I considered sending a patch of syntax/c.vim, but given that file's
complexity, chances are I'd end up breaking something without even
noticing. Would be happy if a dev could take a look.

Thanks,
Will
