There's no gretl.lang in none of the folder you mentioned. Is this the problem?

Ah, then it seems there's something wrong with the build on Debian 
testing. Can you check if gretl.lang is installed? For highlighting to 
work, it should be in

/usr/share/gtksourceview-2.0/language-specs/

It might be worth seeing if the wrong version was installed; that is, if 
there's a gretl.lang in

/usr/share/gtksourceview-3.0/language-specs/

I don't run Debian myself -- can anyone else comment on this?

Hmm, I wonder why those libraries are in different directories?

Anyway, did you build gretl yourself? I wonder if something went wrong
with "make install", in particular the sub-target "make install-lang"
in the gui2 directory: that installs the gretl.lang file that is needed
for gretl's syntax highlighting.
