I would try editing a *.pl file under a different user account - an
account that has no spaces. On the same system. Preferably with the
same VIM installation. Or at least an identical VIM installation and
config. So that we see whether the problems has something to do with
the space in "C:\Users\Knute Johnson\AppData\Local\Temp".

Thanks for the followup. I would gladly comply if I hadn't completely
destroyed my Windows box trying to reinstall Windows. I had to load
Linux on this box so the problem is now moot.
