This is not correct. `-u NONE` tells Vim to read no initialization
files, as well as plugins. This will not disable autoloading, so one
*still* may do `:execute pathogen#infect()` after starting Vim or in
e.g. --cmd (it *will* work on that early stage because &runtimepath
would already be initialized to contain ~/.vim and this is *all* one
needs to make autoloading work). But -u NONE will require to do this
explicitly (done by OP by using :so) and will also set &loadplugins to
zero which makes calling pathogen rather pointless.

OP should have different problem, -u NONE is not disabling autoloading
functionality.

I would ask him to check pathogen.vim contents and whether it can be
sourced with explicit `:source ~/.vim/autoload/pathogen.vim`.
