Good feature but it has a few issues. My nanorc has includes for each syntax 
file, a default syntax (not an included file) and then key binds. I assume all 
binds are placed in the default syntax with this patch, because it complains 
about a bunch of functions not allowed and then aborts.

Error in /etc/nanorc on line 380: Mapping "exit" is not allowed for 
syntax-specific
Fatal error: no keys mapped for function "Exit".  Exiting.

I commented out the default syntax and it still produces the same errors. Did 
the binds get put in the last included syntax? Might be better to require 
bind/unbind to be in an include file to be syntax specific.

Not all syntaxes are languages, so all uses of "language specific" should 
probably be renamed to "syntax specific".
