1) what version ov vim?
2) syntax realted things are in
/usr/share/vim/vim63/syntax
how vim identify a file type shold be written in
/usr/share/vim/vim63/filetype.vim
anyway i do not think it is a bug. What files are supposed to be the
two you created? they have not a recognizable syntax. It is just that
vim thinks that your file is of a certain type and the related syntax
highlight is applied.
