 From what I understand, you can drop any *.vim syntax file into 
~/.vim/syntax and it will be used. No need to do anything in /usr.
I just never came across any package that has its own syntax file for 
vi. The vim-common rpm comes with the standard syntax files: c.vim, 
php.vim, spec.vim etc. Other than that the syntax files go into the 
user's home dir.
Neither Debian's nor Ubuntu's mapserver package contain a map.vim.
But since you guys are doing the work, as you wish...
