Two things:

Patch 7.3.223 does not work, because the badly spelled "versiòn" is in
iso-8859-1 or so, and the patch is UTF-8
I think patch 7.3.223 could be converted to the right charset, the damage if
people keep using the old file is limited to a badly spelled word in a
comment.


Along the line in the comments Ben just made:
Given your answer, that the patches are for the new runtime - I tried first
just fetching the two failing files from ftp://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/runtime,
and then 7.3.202 and 203 succeded. I then carefully refreshed all my runtime
files onto the original vim-7.3.tar.bz2 tree. But then other patches failes
like 7.3.196 (on file runtime/doc/autocmd.txt) as it already has been
applied.

So either this is a mess, or there is something very fundamental that I
don't get!

If it is the later - could someone then tell me how to obtain the fully
patched set of files using the FTP-site.
If it is a mess, could we ask for a replacement of the failing patch files,
as far as I can see, it is only in the runtime/doc there are files modified
whitout the patches being issued.  Alternatively, if you do not want to
change already issued patches, perhaps a patch 7.3.000 could be issued to
set the score straight updating the last files in doc?
