It could also be a "system vimrc" as installed by some Linux
distributions. Do you still see the bug when starting Vim with
vim -N -u NONE
? If you don't, check the output of ":scriptnames" immediately after
startup in a Vim started in the usual way. (The location of the "system
vimrc" is also shown near the middle of the output of ":version" but
":scriptnames" lists _all_ the scripts sourced so far in the present Vim
session -- it could also be a global plugin added or changed by respect
to those in ftp://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/runtime/plugin/.)
Best regards,
Tony.
