Hi Brad, it's KDE that I'm using at the moment. I think I've just solved it. I fetched vim from sources, and specified the gui to use GTK2 (it defaults to GTK). This made it work. It is very strange indeed. I have just noticed something else that has gone funny under xinerama: openoffice's calc. But the behaviour that that exhibits is very strange and I need to look into it more.
Anyway, thank you for your response.
