I'm not using gvim. I should have made it clearer

I don't know what `*P' is. I use middle click.

I do not know if the terminal has changed . I use xterms almost
exclusively and prefer vim in an xterm... not gvim.

I normally start vim in an xterm with the usual
vim filename

Typing in an xterm:
xterm -version
XTerm(256)

Not some gnome terminal, KDE terminal or some other jive.. just a
regular xterm.
