The "multiignore" flag I was referring to is a variable in the code,
not something that would make sense for you as an end user.

Like I said, there's a bug, a successfully matched %-G<mumble> will
prevent subsequent %C<mumble> (and other things) from working. If you
know how to compile Vim yourself, please try the patch I posted in my
previous message. It supposedly fixes the bug, see if things make more
sense after that. Not sure what else I could tell you at this point.
