Your syn match command either needs a contains=hl1, or your syn region
command needs a containedin=potltab0.

Your syn match will match "a space at the beginning of the line,
followed by anything not a tab, followed by any number of anything".

Actually it also had a 'ยท' char at the beginning of it, but then I
realized I had another syn match that matched all other lines and
it didn't set colour to anything so I forgot about it (because the
syn group pattern was on a line that wasn't highlighted).. adding it
as containedin arg fixed the problem!
