A couple ideas occur to me:
1) you have some plugin that is changing the 'ff' setting. I'd check
what ":set ff?" to see what vim thinks the file should be written as.
2) you should be able to force writing as Unix format with ":w
++ff=unix
3) it's theoretically possible that FTP is transferring the file back
up in ASCII rather than BIN mode. I don't mess around much with
editing remote files, but if you write a copy of the file locally and
it's Unix format, but becomes DOS after transferring it, I remember
having FTP mung my newlines in the past.
