Hi Yaakov,

I'm wondering that noone mentioned it before, but maybe everyone is using ~/.vimrc or they were not as puzzled as me and tried to find out what went wrong.

After updating to your latest vim build 1152, vim started to behave really unexpected, no syntax coloring, only one undo step and doing undo again did a redo, ...

In the meantime I found out that your 7.3-virc.patch is the culprit, it replaces

# define SYS_VIMRC_FILE "$VIM/vimrc"

by

# ifdef FEAT_NORMAL
# define SYS_VIMRC_FILE "/etc/vimrc"
# else
# define SYS_VIMRC_FILE "/etc/virc"
# endif

which changes system vimrc file from /etc/vim/vimrc to /etc/vimrc for normal vim usage.
This way no options are set and vim starts its strange behaviour.

I guess the new block of code should probably more likely be

# ifdef FEAT_NORMAL
# define SYS_VIMRC_FILE "$VIM/vimrc"
# else
# define SYS_VIMRC_FILE "$VIM/virc"
# endif

or at most

# ifdef FEAT_NORMAL
# define SYS_VIMRC_FILE "$VIM/vimrc"
# else
# define SYS_VIMRC_FILE "/etc/virc"
# endif

Regards
Björn
