Package: vim-runtime
Version: 2:7.2.445+hg~cb94c42c0e1a-1
Severity: minor

While looking at Windows registry files (*.reg) in vim I noticed that
the highlighting for ft=registry files doesn't seem to work at all. To
reproduce this issue, just create a file "test.reg" with the following
content:

REGEDIT4

; Test

Open it in vim and notice that the comment is not highlighted as such.
A broken regex in syntax/registry.vim seems to be responsible for this issue;
the following patch fixes it for me:
