Vim issue with split and netrw

Hello,

Since the beginning of May (2023), I am having problems with the split/netrw command of Vim.

Step to reproduce :
1) Open vim in a folder with some files `vim .`

2) Netrw display files in the folder, choose one with navigation keys and hit enter to open a file.

3) Open another file in split with `:Vex`, vim will split but the explorer are displayed on the two panels (you can click to see the gif) :

So how to keep the current file open and not replace with the explorer on all split ?

I use the last version of vim (VIM - Vi IMproved 9.0 (2022 Jun 28, compilé May 04 2023 08:18:27)).
I test without vimrc file and I get the same error.

Re: Vim issue with split and netrw

Also having this issue, even after disabling all plugins. For what it's worth, I've recently noticed the same problem on my fedora coreos node.
