A few things occur to me:
1) are you doing this in a stock vim? Or do you have some
plugin/mapping that might be interfering? I just tried it here and
it worked fine. Can you replicate within
$ vim -u NONE
2) are you doing it on a blank line where the first "x" would fail,
stopping the rest of the macro's execution?
3) (kinda part of #1) do you happen to have some strange mapping for
"0x" that would interfere with the playback? If you manually type
0xx
does it work for you outside a macro?
4) you are executing this in Normal mode, not some other mode, right?
