Okay, now I'm fairly certain 917fff7bc0 is the offending commit: http://code.google.com/p/vim/source/detail?r=917fff7bc09d4cc19795a92aaffa8e87b07d443b The reverse diff (-r 917fff7bc0 -r fb627e94e6) is hard to merge into the current tree (7.3.138), but, being applied to 7.3.000, it does the trick - makes the registers in question work flawlessly again. -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
