forward-symbol is kinda problematic. It does not seems widely
supported. For example, there's no backward-symbol, and the “*-word”
cursor moving keys doesn't change.

don't know what mode you are using, but here's a example of doing it
with emacs-lisp-mode:
(add-hook 'emacs-lisp-mode-hook
(lambda ()
(modify-syntax-entry ?- "w" emacs-lisp-mode-syntax-table )
)
)
