remembered that could be the vi-compatible problem.

This sounds suspiciously like your terminal is sending an escape
sequence to move the cursor, and that the escape is being eaten.

I just realised I'm seeing this, as I pressed an arrow key by mistake (I
never usually use them)!

So this may be a recent regression.

Which Vim versions are you using?

I might try to do a bisect with Mercurial to identify which changeset
introduced the problem anyway.

Hmm. No, I don't think this is it. I tried doing a bisect, but trying to
find a good changeset didn't really work--Vim 7.3.2 has the problem, and
I definitely didn't experience the behaviour that long ago. I get the
problem with -u NONE, so it's not just configuration either. So I don't
know what's causing it yet.

Making a little progress tracking this down. For me it happens when I
start Vim normally, or with -u NONE or with -N. However, if I use
-u NONE -N (both options together), the problem does not occur.

I'll post again if I make more progress. In the meantime, though, does
that set of switches fix it for others experiencing this problem?

Ben.
