Unfortunately, I don't recall. I think I was working with vaidhy on this
problem while chatting with him on irc if I recall correctly. I
personally don't have a problem with this, and he seemed to be satisfied
once he switched to vim (which is his preferred editor anyway). I had all
but forgotten this incident when I stumbled on this thread. Hopefully I
have provided enough clues so that those for whom this is still a problem
can take it from there.
