Could you please provide more info on this?

On a sid box I already have the version of sudo including the fix
(1.6.8p12-1), but I'm unable to reproduce the behaviour you are
reporting, thus I'm tagging the bug as "unreproducible".  Details of my
tests follow.

I tried both running "sudo -s" (as root) and "sudo vim" (as a user who
has the permission to run "/usr/bin/vim" via sudo). In the former case
"$HOME" is set correctly to "/root", in the latter case vim starts
properly without exhibiting any of the problems you reported.

Thanks for the bug report.
Cheers.
