I want to make some changes to the fortran.vim syntax coloring scheme.

It seems reasonable to assume that there is some way to ask vim to
look into a directory in my home for fortran.vim before looking in
$VINRUNTIME/syntax/fortran.vim.

The changes I want to make are:
  * start the past-column-72 reverse-highlight warning at column 138.
  * do the past-column-highlight on other highlight words.
    (right now, a highlit word or number hanging over the boundary is
NOT reverse-lit,
    ultimately resulting in an avoidable compiler error.)

I have located the system fortran.vim file, and I know how to make the
changes above, but making changes to system files is not a good idea
(even if I had privilege).

I already have a ~/.vim/ftplugin/fortran.vim file which contains

let s:extfname = expand("%:e")    " get the current file's extension.
if s:extfname ==? "f"             " if extension is .f
  let fortran_fixed_source=1      " then assume fixed form source
  unlet! fortran_free_source      " and never use free source.
  let fortran_do_enddo=1          " also, indent do loops.
endif

Any help is appreciated!
