I'm running linux (arch linux). I tried with

gvim --nofork
gvim -f
/usr/bin/gvim -f (also: --nofork)
xterm -e vim --nofork (also: -f)

None of them worked. I even tried:

mv $HOME/.vimrc $HOME/dot_vimrc
mv $HOME/.vim/ $HOME/dot_vim

to see if any plugin or config was getting in the way, but
that didn't help either.

Thanks everybody for all the tips and suggestions on other
alternatives. I'm pondering and trying them all.
