OK. Howard mentioned to me in an off-list message that the previous
problem I spotted was a red herring. He had been using a different

to hide the complexity.
As an aside, Howard, doing that kind of thing (editing debugging ou
This is long and boring, but here it comes. For vim 7.3:
Set gives this:
viminfo='300,f300,<0,r/var/tmp,r/tmp,n$HOME/.terminfo
