Please install neovim on toolforge.
Neovim is a fork of vim, that not only adds new features but – for toolforge more important – sets the default settings to more appropriate, modern values. Sofar people had to create a .vimrc in every project they are working on to get a decent text editor. with neovim they can simply use nvim as drop-in replacement of vim and get a usable editor.

The install went surprisingly badly, but I suspect it isn't *because* of this patch.

Investigating a bit...
Well, that was bizarre. I fixed it, and it was definitely a totally unrelated failure :)
