Bug #1761: Alternate File lost when Escaping Command-T.

Description

To reproduce.

1. Open any file with Command-T (first_file). Then, on top of that file, open any other file (second_file).

2. Now open Command-T. Type in a few characters, and then click Escape. Do not open a new file.

3. You should still be looking at second_file. In command mode, <C-^> should take you to first_file, but instead the error E23: No alternate file appears. Ugh.

To make debugging easier, you may want to add this to your .vimrc: 

"Carriage Return to toggle between files in window
nnoremap <CR> <C-^>

    This is a duplicate of ticket #1634, I think. I couldn't reproduce that one, and I can't reproduce following the instructions that you list here. It must depend in some way on either a plug-in you're using, or some specific setting(s) in your .vimrc.

    I'll close this one for now so as to keep all discussion about this issue in the one place. Please add any further comments you have to ticket #1634.
