":e" randomly splits in three windows and shows minibufexpl empty.

[dza]

hi guys, I've been using my vimrc for a few years and now suddenly when I type ":e file" my minibufexpl splits up in three windows like; http://i.imgur.com/ZTG5q17.png - it's quite random! Sometimes I can reopen vim and do two ":e" and minibufexpl shows as normal, but randomly it does this very annoying thing (usually when one file is open and :e is issued).

I've used minibufexpl for a few years and then I decided to install my latest vimrc to my Windows and this startet happening.

vimrc:

My bet is some autocommand. Does that happen with :noa :e?
Do you have some suspicious Buf{Win}Leave or Buf{Win}Enter autocommands?

Hello Christian and thanks for answering.

That's what I thought. I know you can test some auto-commands with 

:debug wincmd p

and

:redir

:9verbose edit file.py

:redir END

There is probably other ways to verify or debug this step-by-step.

I made a verbose.log however:

If I remove all plugins except minibufexpl it works OK!

If I re-add "mru.vim" I can go to one :MRU choose buffer (ENTER), then type :e somefile.py and it does the same.

If I re-add "mru.vim" and :e twice nothing happens.

I think I've got a clue now.

Log on "wrong split behavior" https://gist.github.com/dezza/8f8a5d1932241c784f14

If I change the startdir to something else it seems to work (Not able to reproduce after several tries) ..

Can anyone confirm this ?
