getfontname() seems broken is all versions of MacVim I have tried. It
returns nothing. This came up in a vim_use thread:

Macvim seems not to be reading my .vimrc

MacVim 7.3 snapshot 53, 7.3.1193, 7.3.1214
osX 10.4.11 Tiger
PowerBook G3 Pismo 500MHz

MacVim 7.3.1193, 7.3.1214

Thanks for the report. I've pushed a fix.

I compiled MacVim version 7.3.1233 from

https://github.com/b4winckler/macvim/

and getfontname() works.

Compiled on:

PowerBook PPC G3 Pismo 500MHz
10.4.11 Tiger

MacBook Pro
10.6.8 Snow Leopard

Both work great and fast.
