This behavior is controlled in part by the 'comments' option, the
default value of which is:
s1:/*,mb:*,ex:*/,://,b:#,:%,:XCOMM,n:>,fb:-
The "n:>" element tells the gq command to treat ">" as the beginning of
a comment. Perhaps the value of the 'comments' option is being changed
in your vimrc or in a system vimrc.
