Add filetype on in readme with OS X note.

[matschaffer]

Apparently the default vim in OS X will exit 1 after editing if you try to filetype off before you filetype on

[gmarik]

Can't reproduce this issue.
Could you please provide more details?!

[matschaffer]

Yep, here's a terminal session that illustrates the problem. I got the idea for the fix from this blog post. But it doesn't talk about the root of the problem. Perhaps it has something to do with the '-osfiletype' build option in my stock vim, but I haven't experimented with rebuilding my own vim to find out.

Oh, I see now...
Not sure whether this should be part of sample .vimrc though...
How about putting it into Wiki?
My concern is that sample .vimrc is growing and getting bigger and bigger making Quick Start section more and more "Not As Quick Start".

Let me know what you think...
Thanks for taking time to make detailed report, very much appreciated!

Moving the bundle list out would make it shorter ;)

But I hear you. I'm thinking maybe a "OS X Users" note under the
example vimrc. Link that to the wiki.

Another thought would be an installer script (curl | bash, rvm style)
