-S option

I'm fighting the following strange behaviour:
From an xterm, in Linux:
$ vim -S bar.vim foo.txt

bar.vim is a very basic syntax file. What happens is that foo.txt gets
edited but the syntax highlighting is missing.
I can activate it via
:so bar.vim
but it should not be necessary. What's wrong?

Note that
$ gvim -S bar.vim foo.txt
edits the file with syn. hi. active.


TIA
