My bad.
I used my own Python syntax highlight file and there I forgot to add \> 
after the special keyword identifiers....

Continuing in this direction: It seems to me that things that are defined 
as 'keywords' ought to have a default \< and \> around them. (I must say 
that I'm not really a big fan of the plists file for syntax highlighting, 
they don't really work intuitively and the extra \ for each \ in a regexp 
really doesn't help either.)
