I compile my own vim, but it turns out that one of the machines I
use is also running RHEL 4 and that /usr/bin/vim is version 6.3.82.
I tried the following:
$ /usr/bin/vim -N -u NONE somefile.html
:so /usr/share/vim/vim63/macros/matchit.vim
:filetype plugin on
:filetype detect
I put the cursor on the opening < of the <head> tag and hit %. Each
press of % moved the cursor back and forth between the < and the >
of the <head> tag. Then I moved the cursor to the 'h' in <head>.
Hitting % moved the cursor to the / in the </head> tag. Each
subsequent press of % moved the cursor back and forth between the
first characters of the <head> and </head> tags.
So, with no ~/.vimrc at all, the RHEL 4 installation of vim seems to
work fine here. The version of matchit.vim I sourced is 1.9. Maybe
there's a bug in version 1.13.2, or maybe there is something in your
~/.vimrc that's interfering with the proper operation of
matchit.vim.
Try using matchit.vim version 1.9 if you still have it and try the
experiment above. We can probably get this figured out.
