OK, now I see the problem. I can reproduce it. The problem is the
syntax of your modeline. Vim supports two forms of modelines. The
second form uses the word "set" and ends with a colon (:), e.g.,
" vim: set foldmethod=marker:
The first form does not end with a colon, but also does not include
the word "set", e.g.,
" vim: foldmethod=marker
Change your modeline to either of those two forms and it should work
fine.

Gary
