That's because your vim alternative is pointing to vim.nox. The balloon eval feature is only included in Vim builds that have GUI support. When you load a view in vim.nox with 'balloonexpr' set (from a gvim run), it complains because that's not an option that's available in vim.nox. You can remove "options" from the 'viewoptions' option to avoid caching mappings/options in the view file.
