Lion version of vim crashing repeatably - caught deadly signal SEGV whenever I work on multiple files in different vim buffers/tabs and do a :w to save, vim crashes with a segmentation fault. 

I'm using vim 7.3 that came long with Lion (Actually with SnowLeopard which later I upgraded to Lion). 

Is this issue Lion specific or is this only affecting upgrade users? Any one seen similar issues.

I've been a linux user for most of the time but just bought a mac recently and also upgraded to Lion recently. 

It's quite aggravating to spend so much money and now can't use vim :(
There are two avenues when you have located a repeatable crash (and from the comments and discussions it sure looks like the shipping version is more crash than ideal for the latest shipping OS).


File a bug at bugreporter.apple.com - it's free if you sign up for a free developer account.
Use something like homebrew to get a newer (or older) version of vim that isn't crashing.
