Why is that? Because vim and gvim are the same binaries? Must that
be the case? That is to say, could gvim be done as later work and
simply be a separate binary which has as a dependency the non-gui
vim package?
So how do other unix-like OS's cope with this issue?
(I also note the existence of something called vim-tiny which is
supposedly about the same size as nvi...)
