Perhaps one might ask the VIM developers themselves to provide a

(if they're going to wait for another 2 1/2 years / 1000+ patches
for their next release, they might consider it)

As I previously mentioned, Bram Moolenaar said on 9 May that the patch level for 7.3 will not exceed 1000 patches. ( https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/vim_announce/ZWWgK9aXQ2Y )

Seeing how they apparently refuse to have normal releases and think 900 patches is normally, I don't see how Vim developers would ever create a special tarball. If they were willing to do that, they'd just do normal releases, right? This suggestion to talk to Vim is destined to go down in flames, especially as version 7.4 is imminent (beta scheduled for end of May).
