I don't know what happened, just that :0 is supposed to bring you to
"line zero" (but since there is no such line, you get to the first line
instead).
Maybe there was a missing refresh?
Try opening your logfile in readonly mode (e.g. with :view rather than
:edit, :sview rather than :new, gview rather than gvim, view rather than
vim, etc.) and if you still have the problem, try Ctrl-L to redraw the
screen.
BTW, trying to write a single file from two processes at the same time
(such as Vim and the log-writing process) is courting disaster. If you
do, you're bound to get problems sooner rather than later.
Best regards,
Tony.
