Did the user install from the vimball, or from the zip file? If the
former, have them re-install from the zip file. Vimball is just plain
broken (sorry Charles Campbell), and won't preserve file encodings at
both the creation and the extraction stages of a .vba (among other
problems such as no binary file support, etc.).
I've placed a warning about the vimball archive on my site, and I'll
likely discontinue providing them altogether.
I don't know whether installing from the zip file will actually solve
the problem for MacVim since I don't have access to a Mac, but I would
be interested to know.
Before I'm asked, I did try changing the menu items to utf-8, but that
caused other problems not related to vimball.
