I do not understand why it would only not complete file paths.  What
exactly are you doing?  E.g. if I open a new window and type

:fin Desk<Tab>

Then it completes to

:fin Desktop/

Does this not happen for you?

>From your post it seems you've tried many things but I can't tell if
you've done exactly this (from Terminal):

$ mvim -U NONE -u NONE

(wait for MacVim window to open)

:set nocp
:fin Desk<Tab>

Does that work?
