Placing this in ~/.bashrc seems to be a workaround

# workaround for gvim
function gvim () { /usr/bin/gvim -f $* & }

Title:
  Spurious delayed command line output when using gvim and gnome-shell

Status in “vim” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When gvim is launched from the command line, gvim edits files
  correctly but after a delay the following line is output to the
  terminal:

  ** (gvim:32345): WARNING **: Unable to create Ubuntu Menu Proxy:
  Timeout was reached

  This interrupts the flow of output in the terminal that gvim was
  launched from.
