Not sure if this is a known bug or not, but "official patches" for Vim 
7.2 have passed the 300 mark a few hours ago. See 
http://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/patches/7.2/README for the latest list, with 
a one-line summary of what each patch is supposed to fix.

See also http://users.skynet.be/antoine.mechelynck/vim/compunix.htm if 
you're interested in compiling your own Vim on Unix-like systems.

Best regards,
Tony.

Most fish live underwater, which is a terrible place to have sex
because virtually anywhere you lie down there will be stinging crabs
and large quantities of little fish staring at you with buggy little
eyes.  So generally when two fish want to have sex, they swim around
and around for hours, looking for someplace to go, until finally the
female gets really tired and has a terrible headache, and she just
dumps her eggs right on the sand and swims away.  Then the male, driven
by some timeless, noble instinct for survival, eats the eggs.  So the
truth is that fish don't reproduce at all, but there are so many of
them that it doesn't make any difference.
