Hm. Just a wild thought (untested): try the following (which assumes
'nocompatible'):
if has('autocmd')
au VimEnter * augroup nomodif
au VimEnter * au BufReadPost,BufNewFile * if &buftype == ""
\ | let &l:ma = &l:ro | endif
au VimEnter * augroup END
endif
Then restart Vim (every time you make changes to your vimrc, and after
saving your changes) in order to test it.
If it doesn't work: while editing a file where 'modifiable' is not what
you expect:
:verbose setlocal ma? ro? bt?
Best regards,
Tony.
