Bug#647574: vim: mouse doesn't work with mouse=nv setting

Package: vim
Version: 2:7.3.346-1
Severity: normal

vim's mouse support is no longer working as expected when using the
mouse=nv setting.

Please follow the following steps from an xterm:

   vim -u NONE -U NONE -N

   :set mouse=nv

Then add some text and attempt to position the cursor using the mouse in
normal mode - it doesn't work for me.

These steps do work after downgrading to the 7.3.333-1 version of vim,
vim-common, vim-runtime and vim-tiny.
