Your comment had enough info that I was able to Google the answer: when you switch to vi mode, C-w gets switched to vi-unix-word-rubout. Override it in .inputrc

Sorry, I wasn't clear enough. I re-setup the mappings after enabling vi mode. So I'm still mapping C-w to unix-word-rubout and not vi-unix-word-rubout.
