So, you're writing a NEW syntax file, correct?

Sounds like you should just use a syn match command instead of a syn
keyword command, then you can construct a regex to use.

Huh? How did you get it to recognize "const("? In what way does Vim
"recognize" it? Unless you explicitly add the ( to the highlight rule,
Vim won't automatically highlight it the same as the "const" before
it, but you might be seeing some sort of parenthesis-matching behavior.
