Reported by oliver.steven, Sep 16, 2009
What steps will reproduce the problem?
It happens every time I open MacVim.


What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I don't honestly remember what the window title is supposed to read, I assume it was the file 
name. Also, the standard "splash screen" type text that appears when you first open vim that 
details the version and such is no longer displayed.


What version of MacVim and OS X are you using (see "MacVim->About MacVim"
and  "Apple Menu->About This Mac" menu items, e.g. "Snapshot 40, 10.5.6
Intel")?
I'm running MacVim 7.2.245 (snapshot 49). I'm also running an Intel Macbook with OS X 10.6.1 
(Snow Leopard)

Please provide any additional information below.
I've attached a screenshot of what I see when MacVim first opens.

Actually, MacVim is now acting completely crazy on me. It crashed completely on me. Attached another 
screenshot.

Let's not forget when I do a :wq test.fal it saved the files like shown in my third screenshot instead of "test.fal"

Hope all of this helps!!

Try my custom MacVim binary that I built for 10.6 only:
