Vi window size changes

[Bill Silvert]

I've run into a curious problem with vi on several occasions.  Normally
I run a 40-line window on the console and vi and other programs run fine.
But sometimes vi switches to an 8-line window when I invoke it!  From
then on every time I execute vi I get only 8 lines.  I can solve the
problem with "set window=40", but the only permanent fix is to close the
workspace and open a new one.  Other programs that depend on window size
(like less) work fine, and I cannot find any clues in my environment
variables.
