Apparently there is no culprit. After creating the file as I
described, I returned vimrc to its place, preparatory to testing each
individual entry. Repetitive drudgery is not to my taste, so rather
than get down to it I decided to do a little clutching at straws.
Went back to the buffer of the file created on the ntfs drive, added
an "a" to it and issued a write command, which executed without
incident. Similarly I created another new file on the drive.

I have no explanation, and I'm not about to look for one.
