IIUC, Console Vim running in xterm, or in any terminal whose settings
can be asked, will erase the intro screen when the terminal reply comes
in at startup. However, IIUC this doesn't apply to the Windows console.

vim.exe -u NONE -N

with explicit .exe to avoid any batch wrapper, and -u NONE to avoid any
vimrc and plugins?
