http://www.vim.org/community.php should provide a link to the [email protected] list. If you run vim on windows with "vim -u NUL:" (or create an empty file and use that instead of the NUL: device), I wonder if the behavior persists? If not, there may be something in the default vimrc for windows vim to try to make it more "windows-like" that is providing the behavior you want. The default system vimrc I believe is normally in C:\Program Files\Vim\vim7.3\vimrc, but I haven't used windows in about 2 years now so don't quote me on that ;)
