Ah. Yes, that works; with older tmux I had tested clear and it broke in the same way vim does, but with HEAD this works fine. > What I don't understand is: what made vim change what it's sending > in terminal codes?

Under tmux, it's "screen". If I set the terminal to "screen-bce" under tmux HEAD, the problem goes away. It doesn't appear help on 1.3 on the same machine, or 1.4 on the other machine, only HEAD. My suspicion, therefore, is that the screen terminal on your machine is like the screen-bce terminal on mine, somehow. I don't really know much about terminal definitions; if you tell me how to dump it, I will. I don't know if that actually answers your question it terms of vim's behaviour, although I suspect it does. This fully qualifies as a workaround from my perspective, and I'm more than happy to stop now, although if you want any further help nailing down the details, I'm *more* than happy to give it.
