Re: syntax highlighting colors bold text

It is running the correct vim binary, isn't it? I.e. /usr/local/bin is
in your $PATH before /usr/bin? I think that's where ./configure will put
it without --prefix being given.

Also...and sorry if this ground has been covered...

- Are you using a colour scheme?

- Does
:verbose hi
give any insight? I.e. are the colours being set by different files in
the different Vim versions?

- Does Vim give the same result for
:set term?
in each case?

- What about
:set t_Co?
?

- Are your $PATH, $LIBPATH, $TERMINFO, etc. the same in both cases; I
had some problems a while ago where different path settings of some
kind caused Vim to attempt to use different terminfo libraries as root
and as a regular user, and that caused a number of headaches.

I hate it when these sorts of things go wrong. It should be simple, but
it isn't! Grrr!

Ben.
