Package: vim
Version: 1:6.3-071+1sarge1
Severity: important

To reproduce:
$ echo -e "123456\n%%EOF"|xxd|xxd -r
123456
%%EOF
4V

The 4V is hex "12 34 56", viewable e.g. with xxd:
$ echo -e "123456\n%%EOF"|xxd|xxd -r|xxd
0000000: 3132 3334 3536 0a25 2545 4f46 0a12 3456  123456.%%EOF..4V

I'm setting this to priority important as this problem causes change of
real data (not specially crafted to break xxd; in my case a PDF file)
when using default settings.

The bug is fixed in vim 7.0 which migrated to testing three days ago,
while 6.4 still had this problem. But it would still be good to have a
fix for upcoming sarge update releases.

Regards,
Thomas
