Thanks for your input Bram. I wanted to make a couple of checks before
getting back you.

In pkgsrc, as default we have:

PKGSRC_USE_FORTIFY?= strong

As explained here:
http://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/current/pkgsrc/mk/defaults/mk.conf

PKGSRC_USE_FORTIFY?= strong
# Turns on substitute wrappers for commonly used functions that do not bounds
# checking regularly, but could in some cases. This is effectively in use only
# when both enabled and supported.
# Possible values:
# no: Do not pass any flags for FORTIFY
# weak: Pass -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=1
# strong: Pass -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2
# Default: strong


I have rebuilt with PKGSRC_USE_FORTIFY?=weak

and this seems to produce an installation that doesn't crash.

I've passed this information to pkgsrc-users and the editors/vim
package maintainer.

Thanks for you assistance.
