That's normal.  It happens when the assumption Vim makes about the
number of colors supported is corrected when the termcap-query results
comes in.  Vim needs to redraw the screen then.  It also means you might
get wrong colors when you disable termcap-query.

In the situation that it doesn't work properly, what is the output of
":set termcap"?
