What exactly do you consider a bug? Using p is a pretty basic action and
changing the cursor position will be a backwards incompatible change and
will probably break many scripts, macros and maps, thus it is not very
likely, that this behaviour is going to be "fixed", especially since
nobody has complained until now.
The best I can think of, is using something like the attached patch,
which only changes the cursor position for characterwise put of single
lines according to the POSIX standard (as quoted before, see also
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/vi.html#tag_20_152_13_69).
This introduces the new cpo-flag '[' (we are running out of arguments
for the cpo setting so I used the first free char, that I found) and
only works, if set cpo+=[ has been used.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Christian
