I cannot reproduce this, either with or without altering the mapleader.

I can expect this error when markdown filetype is set, but not when you press
,,d. Does this function work when you call it manually using
:call <SNR>{sid}_InsertMkdDate()
? You can get {sid} value in the output of `scriptnames', if it is your only
vimrc it will be 1, but if system vimrc is sourced before your it may be greater
(I have 29, 1 for /etc/vimrc).

And use nnoremap, not nmap.

I do not see how can this be related. Try `verbose nmap ,,d` and see whether
your mapping was defined and not overriden by some script. In any case, when you
complain about problems, create a script that will show the problem that should
work with `vim -u NONE'. If it is not a vim bug, then in most cases you will
solve your problem while creating it.
