I've certainly never seen that before! What version of Vim are you using? Does it happen every time?

Have you tried reproducing without any plugins or customizations? This sounds like it's probably a plugin issue to me, try after launching with "gvim -N -u NONE -i NONE" before editing the file.

Also check to see if you have any FileChangedShell autocmds defined: ":verbose autocmd FileChangedShell".
