I once ran into the same problem on Fedora Core 4 (which probably has
the same default vim configuration as CentOS). Adding these lines
somewhere at the start of matchit.vim seems to do the trick (and can't
hurt those with a different configuration):

" load ftplugin if necessary
if !exists("did_load_ftplugin")
  filetype plugin on
  if !exists("did_load_ftplugin")
    finish
  endif
endif

(CC-ing Benji Fischer so Benji can consider adding a test like this to
matchit.)
