I am running vim 7.2. When I try to edit a .fvwm2rc, I get syntax errors in

I found a message by Googling which referred to an updated file for vim
7, at http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg16116.html --
That's old.
I've not got any problems here using the file fvwm.vim at all --
what's your filetype set to? ISTR if it's not "fvwm", then you might
run into problems, but until I can see what errors you're getting, I
wouldn't want to speculate.
I'm running a newly installed Mandriva Linux 2010.1. It has a vim that
claims to be version 7.2.284.
The file is ".fvwm2rc", which according to the vim documentation is already
recognized--you only need to set the filetype for files other than .fvwmrc
and .fvwm2rc.
These are the errors I get:
Error detected while processing /usr/share/vim/syntax/fvwm.vim:

Followed by a whole lot more repeats of the same error with different line
numbers.
The fvwm.vim file contains this at line 29:
