Looks to me like you're running a native (non-Cygwin) version of vim.
Check
         which vi
         vi --version
and make sure /usr/bin is at the start of your PATH.

     I always wondered about the meaning of life.   So I looked it
     up in the dictionary under "L" and there it was - the meaning
     of life.  It was not what I expected.                  - Dogbert
