Now when you type "vim /tmp/bar" it reports that a .swp file is found
and asks you about recovery. However when you press "R" for recovering
the file, vim complains saying it can not find the swap file (probably
because vim looks for the swap file in /tmp, instead of in /tmp/foo).
This appears to be fixed in vim7.
I'm using Vim-7.017, and it's not fixed! Is there a more recent version?

No, that's the current patchlevel. However:
- The 'directory' option (q.v.) directs where the swap file shall reside
- If you are reopening it with a different login name, there could be a
permissions problem.
