Thanks Sergei for the explanation and Stig for the confirmation that
your vcl-mode.el should be considered as out-of-date.

I'll stay with vcl-mode.el: it's just a newer version of the same
package which simply doesn't support the old syntax any more (the fact
that it was rewritten from scratch can be seen as an "implementation
detail").
