In Improved C syntax highlighting for VimUnfortunately doesn't work for me, it complains about not having definitions for cppType and cppStatement. Looking in the file it undefined them [1] [2], putting them back just messes with the formatting (as the code comments suggest). It looks like this was something that was changed from the original code [3].
