I usually see that message when my terminal is not in the system's terminfo/termcap database. My terminal is rxvt-unicode, but I frequently SSH in to systems that don't know about that terminal, and therefore can't figure out what the proper escape sequences are. I solve that problem either by installing rxvt-unicode on the remote system (if I have the required permissions), or with:export TERM=xterm in bash, which tells it that I'm using xterm instead (rxvt-unicode is xterm-compatible). This is all heavily dependent on which terminal you're using, as well as other factors, of course. But maybe it can point you in the right direction.
The OP is using MacVim, I am using gvim, both of which run "on" no terminal but generate their own "dumb" (pseudo-)terminal when invoking the shell. That dumb terminal's stdout and stderr are displayed on gvim's (or, I suppose, MacVim's) command-line, at the bottom of the screen, just like the output of :echo etc.
