There is an annoying error in cobol.vim when used
with the traditional layout (i.e. first 6 columns
reserved for a line number and all statements in
upper case.) The occurrence of the IF verb causes
the statement containing it to be red highlighted
as a syntax error.

As a result I have to turn off syntax
highlighting to read the IF statements easily.

I don't know enough about the intricacies of
syntax files to correct this error. I have added
the IF word to the list of reserved words but I
doubt that will solve the problem. In any case
cobol.vim should be fixed for all users. Rather
than trying to chase down the maintainer myself 
I thought I would ask here. 

Maybe there isn't a current maintainer (gloomy
thought.)
