Hello, Since around last year I experience very frequent vim crashes. This is caused by Lua written plugin neocomplete.vim. Plugin's author reply was: "Vim plugins cannot crash Vim. It seems if_lua garbage collection bug."
The crash is very difficult to reproduce. It takes from 10min to several days for running vim session to crash. VIM version 7.4, included patches: 1-582. There is some gdb output: --- $ gdb vim GNU gdb (Debian 7.7.1+dfsg-5) 7.7.1 Copyright (C) 2014 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
