Why does :q delete the window

Hi, I usualy have a 2x2 window configuration for my Emacs frame. My evil-version is 0.1 and my emacs is GNU Emacs 24.2.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin, NS apple-appkit-1038.36) of 2012-08-27 on bob.porkrind.org Anybody has an idea why :q or :wq not only gets rid of the buffer, but also of the window? Editing a file in window 2 with following configuration -1- -2- -3- -4- and doing :q in -2- I end up with configuration ---1--- -3- -4- This is rather annoying. Any pointers?
