don't know if thats alright, but it looks like netrw is present, or am i mistaken?

It shows that netrw is present in the source directory. After building Vim `./configure ; make`, you should install it into a different directory via `make install`. If you're not doing that, you should; most build tools aren't written to support installation into the source directory. If I try running `vim` from the source directory without the `make install` step, it can't find its runtime files (because it's looking for them in the directory where they'd be installed). And it comes back with the same "is a directory" error.

If you did run the `make install` step, check instead where Vim was installed, not your source directory.
