The persistence of registers within the viminfo file has been
around for quite a while (at least since I started using vim back
around version 5.x) -- however its default settings may vary
depending on platform (some Linux distros may tweak the default
behavior in the stock vim settings); or you may have put
something in your vimrc, forgotten about it, and then not carried
your vimrc to a new upgrade/platform.
