Description of problem:
If you start vim within gnome-terminal, without arguments, the second
line will contain `^[34m' before the expected `~' character, as well
as in every `type :' line.  If you open a small file, the line below
the last line of the file will contain this same sequence.  If it's a
big file, the one-before-last line in the screen, will contain this
sequence as well.  I don't know whether this is a terminal emulation
bug in gnome-terminal/vte or an incorrect sequence issued by vim.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
vim-enhanced-6.2.253-2

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start vim
2.Start vim small-file
3.Start vim big-file
    

Actual Results:  The `^[34m' sequence is displayed in all cases, as
described above.

Expected Results:  It shouldn't.
