Thanks for looking that up, but I'm not sure how it applies.
As of Vim7, if you don't have:
let g:tex_flavor='latex'
then the default filetype behavior to a ".tex" file is to treat it as
plaintex. In that case, Vim-LaTeX is not invoked at all and thus the
texrc doesn't get run.
It looks like some native Vim compiler support was added in Vim7. That
support wasn't there in 6, and so Vim-LaTeX would get started
automatically. Now, in a vanilla Vim7 installation with no explicit
g:tex_flavor set, Vim-LaTeX is ignored.
I frequently respond to messages in other groups where people complain
about Vim-LaTeX not getting loaded, and that's just because they
upgraded to Vim7 and didn't know to add the flavor line to their vimrc.
After that, everything is fine. For some reason, I never thought to post
here and see if there was a way to modify the Vim-LaTeX distro so that
setting g:tex_flavor wasn't necessary. <?>
