Where does it disappear on my system then? Both --help and --version show nothing when compiling latest (7.3.712) vim using the following script:

#!/bin/zsh
make distclean
make clean
CFLAGS=' -O0 -ggdb3 ' \
./configure --with-features=huge \
--enable-python3interp=dynamic --with-python3-config-dir=/usr/lib64/python3.2/config-3.2 \
--enable-pythoninterp=dynamic \
--enable-rubyinterp \
--enable-perlinterp \
--enable-luainterp=dynamic \
--enable-tclinterp \
--enable-gui=yes \
--prefix=/usr
make -j5

. I don't have a single idea about why would I need to have "gvim --version" in GUI window (especially in that one that is not shown), this option is mostly for "vim --version | xclip -i" or for remote has().
