I recently installed 7.0 and have noticed some undesirable behavior;
I'm expecting there's a config option that already exists and I'm
just missing it in the docs.

Suppose I run "vim *" and there happens to be some very large files
in the directory.  While vim is loading a big file into its buffer,
I'd like to be able to interrupt (^C) that file's load, and then :n
to the next file.  That's how it worked in 6.3.46, but with 7.0 a :n
tries to re-load the file that was interrupted.

I tried your scenario in vim7.0.188.I see the correct behaviour in vim7:
vim 7, after file-load-interrupted , then after :n!,  switches to the
next file.

But if you do :n instead of :n!, vim will not switch (you get error
E37 instead).

Can you make sure you use :n! and not :n ?

Here is my testcase:
   mkdir /tmp/1
   cd /tmp/1
   dd if=/dev/zero of=100mb bs=1M count=100
   touch a b c
  vim 100mb a b c
  Ctrl-C # interrupt loadig of 100mb file
  :n!
<- vim switches to the next file here
