Hello,

In a .c file in the following line, the character is categorized as
"cSpecialError".
```
char my_char = '\e';
```
(This is a valid character (27) on my machine.)

It seems to be this section in runtime/syntax/c.vim:
```
83 if exists("c_gnu")
84   syn match     cSpecialError   "L\='\\[^'\"?\\abefnrtv]'"
85   syn match     cSpecialCharacter "L\='\\['\"?\\abefnrtv]'"
86 else
87   syn match     cSpecialError   "L\='\\[^'\"?\\abfnrtv]'"
88   syn match     cSpecialCharacter "L\='\\['\"?\\abfnrtv]'"
89 endif
```

And "c_gnu" is not set.

I tried setting "c_gnu" in "~/.vim/after/syntax/c.vim" (which is
currently vim9script).

This would not work because the scope is local to the vim script:
```
var c_gnu = 1
```

Can someone please help me how to set this variable?
And shouldn't the variable be set by default on GNU/Linux machines?

Regards
Bjoern
