I have been digging around the vim syntax file a bit. At some point, the
vimNumber syntax definition added the 'skipwhite' argument to it, which
basically prevents that the whitespace after it can be matched by other
syntax rules.
In your case, I would change the BufWinEnter autocommand to a matchadd()
function call like this:
au BufWinEnter *.vim call matchadd('Tab', '\t')
Then it should be working again.
Thanks,
Chris
