Do you have a way to reproduce this in a clean environment?  I've tried
various upgrade paths, starting from an Etch system and hitting all the
packages that had changes related to this.  I'm unable to reproduce it.

Could you post the results of

zgrep -E 'vim(|-tiny|-runtime|-gui-common|-common|-gnome) ' /var/log/dpkg.log* | cut -d: -f2- | sort

That should at least help me try other upgrade paths.
