This may be unrelated to sc's problem, but happened to me in
my Windows installation.

I removed all *netrw* files from my $vimruntime and
installed the latest (112b) there.  It worked fine.
However, I later updated my runtime files from the ftp site
(the update only copies new files and only overwrites
existing files if the ftp file has a newer date).

After the update, I noticed that I was back to 110.

Looking around at the ftp site, I noticed that there are two
very similar versions of the autoload file netrw.vim on the
ftp site.  One is in the autoload/ directory and starts
with:

" netrw.vim: Handles file transfer and remote directory listing across
"            AUTOLOAD SECTION
" Date:         Jun 20, 2007
" Version:      110k    NOT RELEASED

The other is in the plugin/ directory and starts with:

" netrw.vim: Handles file transfer and remote directory listing across
"            AUTOLOAD SECTION
" Date:         Jun 21, 2007
" Version:      110

These two files are identical, except for the differences in
those lines and the line starting with: let g:loaded_netrw =

So this second version is getting written to the plugin\
directory of my runtime files and gives me the version 110
announcement.

The netrw.vim file should be removed from the plugin/
directory of the ftp site.

A working solution, until this is done, is to create a
current dated empty file called netrw.vim in the plugin
directory of your runtime.  That way the rouge netrw.vim
will not be written there when you update your runtime.
