If this is a mac-only issue, as it seems to be, this is the proper place.

For issues concerning all versions of Vim whether or not running on a Mac, 
there are also the vim_use Google group for questions about general use, for 
instance "How do I get syntax highlighting even on very long lines" or "what is 
the difference between vimrc and gvimrc? (both of these are answered in the 
help), and the vim_dev Google Group for "development" issues including bug 
reports, crash reports, requests for enhancements, etc.

GitHub issues are reflected on the vim_dev group.


Best regards,
Tony.
