I don't know but I see that vim72/filetype.vim sets filetype
"fortran" and vim72/syntax/fortran.vim looks to see if a global
variable fortran_dialect is defined, and if not, tries guessing.

So, I would check that in the problem case, the output from the
following shows "fortran":

  :verbose set filetype?

They I would search for fortran_dialect and see if there might
be some explanation (e.g. in your vimrc).

Or, if you always use F90, put following in vimrc:

  :set fortran_dialect = 'f90'
