The answer there gives you the technique to use. AFAICT you only need
to adjust the regexp he used in exmark-syntax-propertize.
You'll want to read about syntax-tables in the Elisp manual to
understand what the "_" means in that function (for a quick
refresher on which char means what, C-h f modify-syntax-entry RET is
what I use, but you first need to read the Elisp reference to really
understand how that works).
