Hi there!

After I upgraded my ubuntu to 12.0.4, vim version 7.3.429 behaves
kinda weird.
1. vim file1;
2. :vsp ./ browse and open file2 --- everything is cool;
3. move cursor to window file1;
4. :vsp ./ try to split and browse again, new browsing window
opened, good, but the cursor is moved to window file2 and file2 is not
modifiable.
"i.e. E21: Cannot make changes, 'modifiable' is off" if you try to
edit it.

I suppose it should be the newly opened directory browsing window set
to unmodifiable. not the old file editing window.

This has been fixed in a newer version of NetRW.
