I have actually made another dated release with this patch and a couple
of other bugs I caught while fixing this.

Good. Its very helpful to have ~/.vim or ~/vimfiles as the first
directory. I haven't really given too much though about
/usr/share/vim/vim61/addons. What problem were you trying to solve with
the introduction of this directory in the 'rtp'? I would advice you to
take into consideration how vim behaves on other platforms. If you
create a system which is specific to deb, then package writers will have
to write additional code to handle it. So even if you add the addons/
directory, please make sure it works transparently, i.e, the script
writer doesn't have to bother that his script/package is installed in
it...
