I have been unable to reproduce the problem you are experiencing. I
tried doing so by running Vim in this fashion:

vim --noplugin -u NONE -c 'set ttym= mouse='

and ex with the same arguments.

Could you supply a minimal .vimrc which contains exactly the settings
that cause this problem for you?

Also, would you please supply some other points of information that
may be relevant? These include:

1. Version of XTerm you are using
2. Value of the TERM environment variable
3. Values of your LINES and COLUMNS variables
4. Architecture of your Slackware installation (i686 or x86_64)

For my part, I ran the above test with
1. xterm -v => X.Org 7.6.0(297)
2. TERM=xterm
3. LINES=49 COLUMNS=167
4. Slackware 14.1 i686

I expect that on your system you have similar values. Since you're
seeing weird behavior we'll have to cover weird bases to explain it.
