Okay, at least you're seeing what I saw. As mentioned, it's not
provably a bug, but just violates my intuition.

I'd expect nvi to behave like 'sol' was set, as there's a note in
its help that 'sol' is (re)set when 'compatible' is set.

PS: I see that you too are running on Debian. I'm curious how you
have your machine set up to run Vim and develop it? Do you have the
vim package installed, and then also occasionally build Vim from
source? And if building your main vim from source, to where do you
install it? I'd enjoy running something slightly more recent than
what comes out of the box in Debian Stable, but not enough to
overcome the inertia of shrugging and accepting whatever comes out of
the box with Debian Stable.
