(pkg version 2:7.3.429-2ubuntu2.1.)

NOTE:  my build procedure was incomplete, sorry:

6) $ make

Title:
  Pressing F10 makes desktop unresponsive

Status in “vim” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: vim-gnome

  When I press F10 in gvim, activating the menu, and then press Esc to
  get out of the menu, the rest of the desktop stops responding, i.e.
  nothing responds to clicks but gvim, and Alt-Tab also does not work. I
  found a nasty workaround for this problem by restarting metacity from
  inside gvim, but I realized today that I can also just activate the
  menu again with e.g. Alt-F, then Esc. This returns the state back to
  normal.

  I don't know whether this is a problem with gvim or with gnome, but I
  don't have this problem with any other software

  Using Ubuntu 10.10

  Installed versions:  
    vim  2:7.2.330-1ubuntu4
    vim-gnome  2:7.2.330-1ubuntu4
