what I do is open a shell and exit back to vim.
has the same effect as gvim gaining focus.

Once you've got the detection working, here's a good example of how
you could handle it:
http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/File_no_longer_available_-_mark_buffer_modified
Or just use the defaults which will prompt you every time.
