Works fine now.

I thought so and indeed it works now ... it was probably coincidence 
that it didn't work before.

Shouldn't it detect changes to the buffer through the md5 sum? What I 
meant was: I modify the buffer (add a line, or change lines) but that 
change doesn't cause vim to be run again. From what I can see, the tmp 
file isn't written at all, if it already exists, therefore the md5 sum 
doesn't change, therefore vim isn't run again. Shouldn't the tmp file 
always be (re)written, to reflect the content of the current buffer?

Indeed, works as expected now.

Even better (kinda ;-)).

Thank you for your efforts and the quick bug fixing!
