I can't reproduce in 9.8q either. Setup,

  ~/tmp/v $ touch a  b  c  d  e  f  g  h  i  j
  ~/tmp/v $ ls
  a  b  c  d  e  f  g  h  i  j
  ~/tmp/v $ vi *

`:e e' followed by `:n' takes me to buffer `b' (since `a' has already
been visited), not `f'.

Successive `:n's cycle through b, c, d, f, g, h, i, j, a, e, b (as expected).
