Using the same file and "vim -u NONE" I don't get beeping behavior
(neither with vim or gvim). Nor do I get the visual bell. I do get
a beep/visual-bell if I try to extend past the end of the file, but
that's always been there. I can disable the sound with

:set vb

(":help 'visualbell'") and get a blink instead (which is actually
what I prefer, so I run with "xset -b" but I tested this using "xset
b 50 110 20" to turn it back on).

You don't mention your platform, so there might be some difference
there (my testing was on Debian Linux).
