Confirmed the problem even in 'nocp' mode. Started the
console version with:
vim -u NONE -N
After following your instructions and typing ":tabs" the
tabs were gone but a blank unreachable line remained.
I received the same message in response to ":q!" but was
able to get out with:
:set nomod
:q!
Even with 'nomod' I couldn't get out with just ":q" (same
two line error message).
