I ran into this problem some time ago:
https://groups.google.com/d/topic/vim_use/hjoM4IdPgMY/discussion
I gave up on that line of attack for the problem and eventually wrote my own
formatexpr. It doesn't correctly reformat a short first line to include text
from the second line but it works fairly well aside from that. I don't remember
if I ever tried the plugin recommended in that thread (
http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=1939 ), you might want to look
into that, unless you can quickly get your patch working as you want.
