Thanks for the reply. But got help from #vim. The problem was with
TowerOfHanoi, GameOfLIfe etc. macros located at
/usr/share/vim/vim74/macros which didn't work BTW.

But I still don't understand why to bundle macros with default
standard VIM package which don't work (Additionally make VIM behave
in weird ways)?

I don't find solace in "These are old toys which once worked but then
nobody paid attention to them" which I got from #vim. If they don't
wok then simply DO NOT include them in standard VIM package.
