references options not available in your version of Vim?

I'm running Vim 7.0 with the default rc ie none. The exact message is
Vim: Warning: Output is not to a terminal
I've checked and it's not actually Konsole that causes this. I see the
same with a standard console or xterm. I believe the message comes very
early. I think I'm going to try and install Vim from the ports rather
than rely on the pbi.
As an additional nonsense, when I add a .vimrc in /usr/local/share/vim
gvim started in Konsole seems to see it, but the one started from the
installed icon doesn't. I suppose the icon thing is actually some script
or executed in some special environment.
