Strangely, it sounds like 'revins' is getting set.  You can check

  :verbose set ri?

This might be an artifact of some locale setting that thinks you're typing in a right-to-left language. Or perhaps the particular file in question has a modeline that calls for reverse-insertion.

You can read more at

  :help 'ri'
  :help modeline
  :help ins-reverse
  (as well as the remainder of the rileft.txt helpfile
   that second help-target drops you in)
