Note that this will disable defaults.vim _in all cases_, even when
sourced by vimrc_example.vim or directly by .vimrc. I would put an
example after the above paragraph, like this:
Example:
if !(filereadable('~/.vimrc') || filereadable('~/_vimrc') ||
filereadable(expand("$VIM/_vimrc")))
let skip_defaults_vim = 'skip'
endif
