Just now I have noted that in this situation I also cannot see the version of my gvim via the Help menu (but saving via the the "Save current file" icon usually works). The output from the :version command (executed from a newly started gvim) is as follows: VIM - Vi IMproved 7.4 (2013 Aug 10, compiled Sep 7 2014 11:35:08) Included patches: 1-273 Modified by Gentoo-7.4.273 Compiled by myself.
