According to svn in the file trunk/vimfiles/ftplugin/latex-suite/texrc, there 
was the following line since 2002-04-30:
TexLet g:Tex_Flavor = 'latex'

This is the comment about it:
" NOTE: The values of g:Tex_Flavor and g:Tex_CompilerFlags are provided as a
"       way to make compiler/tex.vim standalone. i.e independent of the rest
"       of latex-suite. These variables are NOT used if you have already
"       defined g:Tex_CompileRule_dvi above.
"
" specifies the current latex flavor.

Hth,
