Now I understand. That is weird. The contents of the file I
created doing that are between the horizontal lines below.

Looks like a bug to me.

:help 'verbosefile'
says
Writing to the file ends when Vim exits or when 'verbosefile' is made
empty.
So I guess that "Writing to the file ends" also means that "output
to the file isn't flushed until". I think that the help entry
should be clarified.
The resulting file also has the odd leading blank lines.
Thanks for clarifying the problem.

Gary
