I'm not sure either. Ottavio, what is 'cmdheight' set to? Ask it with
:verbose set ch?
The default setting is 1, which IMHO is often too small a value. Does
the problem still happen (with long pathfilenames and/or narrow
terminal sizes) if you do
:set ch+=1 ch?
once or twice? If it doesn't, you can make that setting permanent by
writing it (not with += but with = and the actual value) into your
vimrc.

Best regards,
Tony.
