If anyone brave would like to play around with improved syntax
highlighting for ebuilds, eclasses and GLEP documents (and at some point
in the future when I figure them out, Gentoo style ChangeLogs)...

http://dev.gentoo.org/~ciaranm/overlay/app-vim/gentoo-syntax/

Chances are you'll have to re-emerge vim-core, etc-update and accept the
changes to /etc/vim/vimrc before these will actually work. (For those
who care, using set filetype= in a global configuration file is a bad
idea, since it can't be overridden from plugins... Using setfiletype is
the correct way to do things.)

The ebuild/eclass syntax file should be fairly clean, the GLEP one is a
mess and rather incomplete since vim doesn't particularly like that kind
of syntax... Patches encouraged.
