Build it from source...
If anyone can advise how to 'fix' the caveat listed at the bottom, I'd 
appreciate it.

cd /usr/src
mkdir vim
cd vim
svn co https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/vim/vim7
cd vim7
./configure  --enable-rubyinterp --enable-cscope --enable-fontset 
--with-features=huge
make
make install

only one caveat -- when invoking gvim, you have to pass the -f 
parameter, otherwise you will get:
gvim: Fatal IO error 128 (Transport endpoint is not connected) on X 
server :0.0.

thanks,
reid
