Following on from a bug report I made on the Syntastic issue list: https://github.com/scrooloose/syntastic/issues/151 "When the error list window is open, along with the file it was opened with, you can cause a segfault to happen by just quitting the source file (while the error list is still open) This doesn't happen when a second file (either with, or without an error window) - only when it is the last file open."
... The developer there believes that this is a vim issue, and not a syntastic one, so I'm posting this here in the hope that something useful comes of it! mvim --version: VIM - Vi IMproved 7.3 (2010 Aug 15, compiled Jan 18 2012 09:35:39) MacOS X (unix) version Included patches: 1-390 Compiled by [email protected] Huge version with MacVim GUI.
