For me, this PS1 (with ``\w``, not ``/w``) works just fine, i.e.,
after having said ``vim`` or ``vim x``, the PS1 is printed as expected
after having left vim.

Is the behaviour on your side the same with a more simple PS1?  What's
the outcome of ``type vim``?

You can possibly investigate if it is actually PS2 or not by setting
PS2 to some different string (``export PS2="fancy> "`` or the like).
