The vim SlackBuild is nearly up to date as far as application patches, but the runtime-syntax patch seems to actually replace newer syntax files with older ones. My guess is that at some point, the runtime/syntax folder on the ftp site and mirrors stopped being updated. The scripts fragment that automates the update of the patch probably predates the runtime/syntax folder update cessation. I could be completely wrong, but according to the dates on the files, that doesn't seem to be the case. Not earth shattering, I know. Would be nice to eventually fix if true.
