Also, one might use

syn match jaKeyword /\<c\%(umount\|mount\|open\|close\)/hs=s+1
hi def link jaKeyword Identifier

which simplifies the syntax a bit.

Despite multiple attempts, I was unable to get it to work with
syn-keyword as it seems to want a Word boundary between the /\<c/ and
the keyword. I tried

syn region jaKeywordRegion start='\<c'rs=s+1 end='\>' contains=jaKeyword transparent
"syn keyword jaKeyword contained umount mount open close
syn match jaKeyword contained /umount\|mount\|open\|close/
hi def link jaKeyword Identifier

and it worked fine with the "match" version but failed with the
"keyword" version. I also tried various configurations of ms= and
rs= offsets to no avail.
