However, others are reporting this behavior with no plugins -- so that's why I thought it made sense to ask about here. :) Has anyone else seen this (with or without jslint.vim)? Any thoughts about what the underlying cause might be?

I've never seen this; but then, I almost always use gvim, not terminal Vim.

I wonder if there's something weird in the system-wide configuration (the system .vimrc at least, I'm not sure if Unix has a system-wide plugins area like on Windows).
