If this is a duplicate of #215374 then there's a very easy way to exercise the bug without involving rails. Type `:r ~fo<tab>' where `fo' is the start of a username on the system, e.g. `foo'.

I'm experiencing #215374 with vim 1:7.1-138+1ubuntu3. Looking at ftp://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/patches/7.1/README I think patch 7.1.147 looks like it fixes my issues with ~fo<tab>.

    7.1.127 memory leak when doing completing
    7.1.147 (after 7.1.127) freeing memory twice completing user name

It seems we have 7.1.127, avoiding the memory leak, but that introduced a double-free giving a worse-than-a-memory-leak crash, now fixed with 7.1.147.
