The cleanest workaround I could come up with:
In my ~/.vimrc.after (but it could go in any of the *rc files vim reads
on startup in your config), I remap F10 to something safe and useful.

NOTE: I originally saw the bug in vim-gtk, and then later in vim-gnome
(pkg version 2:7.3.429-2ubuntu2.1.)
NOTE: my build procedure was incomplete, sorry:
6) $ make
7) $ make install

You received this bug noti
I tried vim-gnome (7.3.429 from the debian package maintainers), and the
behavior is the same.
Built vim from source (7.3.672 from Bram himself) and the behavior is
the same.
My build procedure:
1) $ sudo aptitude purge vim.gtk vim-gui-common vim-runtume vim
2) $ cd /tmp
3) $ hg clone https://vi
Me, too.
Same lock-up after F10, same workaround involving Alt-F then Esc.
Considering disabling F10 in gvim via ~/.config/openbox/rc.xml.
