When I do that, it still doesn't fork (although I can tell I am not getting
local scripts because the font that is set in my .vimrc is no longer being
used.)
I managed to "solve" my problem by downloading gvim 7.3 and using that instead
of the 7.2.284 that comes with Mandriva. When I download it myself and compile
it myself, it forks.
