Cygwin package vim breaks the command 'view'

Hi,
I missed something,
According to
https://github.com/vim/vim/issues/17039 :
> Looks like problem was introduced in 9.1.1054-1

I downgraded vim to check:
 $ cygcheck -c | grep vim
 vim 9.0.2155-2 OK
 vim-common 9.1.1054-1 Incomplete
 vim-doc 9.1.1054-1 OK
 vim-minimal 9.1.1054-1 OK
The command 'view' now works OK.
I don't see what is different or how it works.
There are no aliases in /etc/profile.d/vim.sh.
"view" is still tiny vim.
So:
- the problem was introduced in vim 9.1.1054-1
- The previous version appears to use another method than my proposed aliases.
Regards,
Coen
