A while ago I downloaded a custom syntax file
-- let's call it foo.vim -- and put it in
~/.vim/syntax/. and a file consisting of

autocmd Bufread,BufNewFile *.foo    set filetype=foo

in ~/.vim/ftdetect  Everything worked just fine until
yesterday when I decided to do some changes to the
syntax file, adding some match statements and their
corresponding hi statements.  Previously the high-
lighting patterns defined in ~/.vim/syntax/foo.vim
worked out of the box when I opened a .foo file, but
now I have to explicitly :set filetype=foo to get the
new highlighting patterns, getting only the old ones
out of the box.  I guess another version of the syntax
file is lying around somewhere and confusing vim
-- only I cannot find it(*).  What do you think is
the problem? I have reviewed and totally recreated my
ftdetect folder and my filetypes.vim

(* FWIW my tracker-search-tool seems broken;
it keeps hanging on permission-denied-errors.)

TIA,
