If not, we should check if upgrading from sarge to unstable vim works
as expected, especially the diversions -> alternatives conversion.

I saw a problem yesterday, upgrading from a vim backport to a newer
version of the vim backport, and /usr/bin/vim was still diverted after
the upgrade, which ends up /usr/bin/vim to be vim 6.3.x instead 6.4,
with the same result, enabling syntax hilighting failed, because the
runtimepath was wrong (displayed to runtime files from vim 6.4, but
6.3 was running).
