Done, r1707.

Exactly this is the problem.

For openSUSE, the current solution is that I submit apparmor.vim to the 
vim package manually.

A working automated solution might be:
- package apparmor.vim somewhere in the apparmor-parser package[1], say 
  /usr/share/apparmor/apparmor.vim [2]
- add apparmor-parser to the BuildRequires of vim
- let the vim build copy /usr/share/apparmor/apparmor.vim to
  /usr/share/vim/vim$version/syntax/

The only disadvantage is the additional BuildRequire for vim - we'll see 
if packagers like it or not ;-)

[1] apparmor-parser already contains the apparmor.vim manpage.
    apparmor-devel would even be better, however there isn't such a
    package yet (at least on openSUSE) and creating it for just one file 
    would result in more metadata than content ;-)

[2] or any other location, this is just a proposal
