Do you by any chance have a "system vimrc"? Its default location is
$VIM/vimrc (without any initial . or _ before the filename) but that
location depends on a compile-time setting. The actual location for each
Vim executable is displayed near the middle of the ":version" output.

If the file exists, it will be sourced in 'nocompatible' mode, before
looking for your [._]vimrc.
