[Bug 94228] Bold fonts are clipped when cursor moves above them.

[Adam Buchbinder]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-terminal

Package: gnome-terminal
Version: 2.14.2-0ubuntu1

Run gnome-terminal. From there, run vim. (I used 6.4, but I see no
reason there should be a difference with a different vim.) Enter insert
mode; the bottom row should read "-- INSERT --". Hit enter until you
reach the second-from-bottom row (just above "-- INSERT --").

Now, hit space until the cursor is above and to the right of "-- INSERT
--". The bold text will be distorted. I don't know if this is a problem
in gnome-terminal or in some library it uses, but I haven't changed the
default configuration of my terminal at all.
