I can reproduce this in 7.3.353 (Vim without Cream) build on Windows
XP 64-bit.

However, additionally, if the current buffer is the empty one from Vim
startup, no new tab is opened; :tab drop just opens it in the current
window.

Also, using my normal Vim config, but not when using gvim -N -u NONE -
i NONE, if I used vnew instead of vsp, the correct tab was jumped to
but the file was loaded in the empty buffer instead of the cursor
being positioned on the existing window.

I don't see this, with gvim -N -u NONE -i NONE, or with my normal Vim
config. Horizontal splits also break. But with my normal Vim config,
if I use :new instead of :sp, and if I move the :new window to the
bottom, then Vim correctly jumps to the correct buffer. However, the
window jumped to by :tab drop (with the correct buffer) has swapped
positions with this :new window, so that it is always on the bottom.
