Package: vim
Version: 1:7.1.314-3+b1
Severity: normal


vim -u NONE -U NONE
:set mouse=a
:set ruler
Write a line longer than 223 chars, it can be a long line of letter a or
whatever.

Try to click a char which has column larger than 223. The cursor does
not move there, instead it usually stays put. Sometimes even weird
things happen, like cursor jumps to a randomish location or some random
command seems to be executed.

Happens on both rxvt-unicode and xterm.
