It seems a shame to have broken every single vim addon rather than simply providing a new directory tree for sourcing addons which *are* problematic. Most addons do not get in the users way and are entirely safe to have enabled when the package is installed. Can we please unbreak this in vim rather than in the addons? -Rob -- GPG key available at: <http://www.robertcollins.net/keys.txt>.
