I can't.  The install server is dead.

Try installing the vim-enhanced package.  I have a RHEL z/Linux system
that has:
vim-enhanced-6.3.046-0.30E.4
vim-common-6.3.046-0.30E.4
vim-minimal-6.3.046-0.30E.4

and the -o option works fine.

My Intel Linux system shows about the same as your s390 Linux.

Sounds like the answer to my question is that the extended features are
compiled out of the version of VIM on some systems (notably RedHat).

On SLES 9 I did  rpm -qa | grep vi and got this:

vim-6.2-235.1
device-mapper-1.01.01-1.6
providers-2004.4.2-4.1
initviocons-0.4-298.1
sysvinit-2.85-21.3

It looks like the only vi file is vim and it is at the 6.2-235.1 level.
This one works as you would like.

I also  have a Red Hat Lin-z system: Linux xxxxxxxx 2.4.21-9.EL #1 SMP
Thu Jan 8 16:59:07 EST 2004 s390 s390 s390 GNU/Linux

It fails as yours does.  I do an rpm -qa | grep vi and it shows:

htmlview-2.0.0-10
vim-common-6.2.98-1
redhat-logviewer-0.9.3-5
redhat-config-services-0.8.5-19
vim-minimal-6.2.98-1
vixie-cron-3.0.1-74

I would be tempted to download and install a newer release of vim from
somewhere.

Toto, I have a feeling we're not in the mainframe world any more.
