That's one of the solutions I proposed in that bug-tracking URL,
though it's complicated because it's not just a .vimrc but according
to docs, but it sounds like ~/.vim/vimrc or ~/_vimrc or ~/.exrc or
~/_exrc or $MYVIMRC or $VIMINIT or $VIM or $EXINIT might also prevent
defaults.vim from loading.   And I'm not 100% certain that list is
complete.

So it sounds like it would require a big chained if-statement testing
filereadable() on all of those sources and only sourcing defaults.vim
if *none* of them exist.
