Vim 7.3 and 7.2 are identical as far as these features are
concerned. There is some configuration difference on your system
that is causing the difference. You could look at the output of
:version and :scriptnames to see what config files are used.

It's probably your system config, but sometimes a difference
like this is due to Vim 7.3 looking for a vim73 directory,
whereas Vim 7.2 looks for vim72 (so if you had some config under
vim72, it won't be found by 7.3). See :version output.

If :version shows:
  system vimrc file: "$VIM/vimrc"

you can see what that is with:
  :echo expand('$VIM/vimrc')

You can possibly fix your problem by adding these to your
personal vimrc:
  set hlsearch
  set statusline=

The last clears statusline which is the default, and which
displays row/column.
