You can verify this by opening a LaTeX file and executing

    :verbose set isk?

but this appears to be set in $VIMRUNTIME/syntax/tex.vim.

I'm not sure of the best way to fix this because I don't know
exactly what the effect on your syntax highlighting will be, but you
can force your 'iskeyword' setting to work by putting

    setlocal iskeyword+=:

in ~/.vim/after/syntax/tex.vim.

HTH,
