Weird behaviour with the 'gN' command

Hi,

I am facing a very strange behaviour with the 'gN' command...

It's quite difficult to describe, so let me explain how to reproduce it instead....

First, enter the following text in Vim:

test test test test

test test test test

test test test test

test

test test test

Put the cursor on the first character of the first line and search for 'test\ntest' (with '/').

Then, select the current match with the 'gN' command. It should work as expected.

Get back to normal mode and hit 'n' to go to the next occurence of the searched pattern, hit 'gN' again, everything should still just work as expected.

Get back to normal mode and hit 'n' again. Now, when you hit 'gN' Vim selects the previous match, not the current one...

Notes:

I have reproduced this with vim 7.4.576 (on Debian Jessie) and with 8.0.3 (on Debian Stretch). I have in both cases launched Vim with the -N -u NONE options.

++

Osman
