Description Nirbheek Chauhan 2010-03-06 20:48:40 UTC 
Created attachment 155441 [details] [review]
Use -u NONE instead of -u /dev/null

in gtkdoc-fixxref, inside HighlightSourceVim(), while running the ViM highlighting commands, vim should be called with -u NONE instead of -u /dev/null

The reason for preferring -u NONE is that it implies no plugins are called either. This is obviously much faster, and the behaviour is desired (and probably what was intended with -u /dev/null)

The attached patch does this.

In case you were wondering where this comes from, this caused a strange bug downsteam: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=306569
