I just tried it by myself again, setting the environment variable
$SHELL to different values prior to starting vim:

$ SHELL=/bin/tcsh vim foo.gz            <-- worked

$ SHELL=/bin/bash vim foo.gz            <-- worked

$ SHELL=/bin/sh vim foo.gz              <-- worked

$ SHELL="" vim foo.gz
  Error detected while processing function <SNR>7_read..<SNR>7_check:
  line    3:
  E91: 'shell' option is empty
  Can't open file /tmp/v666347/0
  line    5:
  E91: 'shell' option is empty
  Can't open file /tmp/v666347/1

$ SHELL=cmd vim foo.gz

  line    3:

  line    5:

Does that look familiar?

Since that is a target independent problem, I assume you should
ask on the bzip mailing list.  But when the Cygwin bzip maintainer
is around, he wants to chime in here, perhaps.
