Tony, you convinced me to try again. But I feel vindicated, again I
experienced the same kind of issues I always seem to have.
:UseVimball ./

These are the filenames, folding brackets and all! This is with netrw
108 JUST downloaded from Dr. Chip's site in the default gVim of the
Fedora Core 6 distribution. It has dumped it all over my $HOME,
despite being located in it's own subdirectory. (At least with Cream,
which follows cwd, it does unpack where the file is.)
[...]
Well, you convinced me to check it:
downloaded into ~/.download/vim/drchip
cd there, mkdir -v vim (for later)
gunzip -vf netrw.vba.gz
then in gvim:
:new ~/.download/vim/drchip/netrw.vba
:UseVimball ~/.download/vim/drchip/vim

So what? Maybe your trailing slash was the hitch?
Best regards,
