I saw that too, but the plugin file never sets g:DisableCF3Ftplugin, it looks like it is simply a way to disable the ftplugin from taking effect if the user has it installed but doesn't want it to load for some reason, on any buffer.

I think the problem is actually here:

if !exists('g:DisableCFE3KeywordAbbreviations')
let g:DisableCFE3KeywordAbbreviations=1
call EnableCFE3KeywordAbbreviations()
endif

That should be a buffer-local variable, not a global variable, otherwise the abbreviations will only load on the first buffer.
