In which case you could pull the Vim sources from Mercurial & build a console Vim to fit your requirements (the default build installs into /usr/local/). Or alternatively, use MacPorts for a console version (I currently use a console version of Vim from MacPorts & a MacVim I compiled from Bjorn's sources on OS X).
