I do not know why you are returned to Terminal in one case and not the
other -- perhaps it is a difference between Mac OS X 10.5 and 10.6?
At any rate, I doubt it has anything to do with MacVim (the snapshots
did run on PPC until quite recently, so you could try a 4X snapshot if
you want to experiment).

At any case, I use something like the following to be sure I am
returned to Terminal after an editing session:

mvim -f -c "au VimLeave * !open -a Terminal"

Actually, that is what I set my EDITOR environment variable to so that
I'm returned to Terminal after editing Git commit messages.

Hope that helps,
Björn
