I think you are running up against the case-insensitivity of Mac OS X Extended FS. By default i believe most Macs are formatted as Mac OS X Extended (Journaled). There is an option to create a Mac OS X Entended (Case-sensitive, Journaled) partition.
This is not related to vim but the underlying FS. in /tmp try this: touch me ME If you do a ls, you'll only see "me" and not "ME" and visa versa depending on which filename you put first after the touch command. This blew my mind too as I thought the Mac OS was UNIX at heart. If I'm off base please let me know and tell me how I can fix my FS.
