Yes, it does still occur. Verifying it for itself is faster, than
sending an e-mail with the question: inside an xterm bring up `vi' to
edit a file with long lines.

Triple-click on a long (one wrapping to the next line) line. Notice,
that only part of the line gets highlighted by xterm. Opening the same
file with less/more has the same effect. Cat-ing, however, does not --
presumably, because cat does not use [n]curses.

Yours,
