If you want the full status line,

   set laststatus=2

If you just want to see the cursor position,

   set ruler

I don't know why it was there for you in vim  6 but not in vim 7 
unless your upgrade process did more than just change the vim 
binaries and runtime files.  Perhaps your new installation changed 
the system vimrc as well.

HTH,
