Bug#468366: vim: Wrong highlighting for sh arithmetic expressions

[Edward Allcutt]

Package: vim
Version: 1:7.1-241+1
Severity: minor

The following is highlighted badly:

==== start file ========
#!/bin/bash

echo $(( ( 2 << 5 ) + 1 ))

echo foo bar
==== end file ==========

The 5 is the wrong colour and everything following until the end of file
is highlighted as if it were quoted text. Removing the parentheses around
the sub-expression corrects the highlighting but changes the meaning of the
expression.
