I have almost solved it. For some reason, a custom status line does not
influence that spot, but StatusLine and StatusLineNC do. Try this:

vim -u NONE
set ls=2
hi User1 ctermbg=1
set stl=%1*%f%=%f%*
<C-w> v

The character between the status lines should have a different color (if
not, change ctermbg to something else). Now try:

hi StatusLine ctermfg=1
hi StatusLineNC ctermfg=1

Now the character should be almost the same color as the status lines
(it may change slightly when switching between windows).

I just have to figure out why, when I define StatusLine and StatusLineNC
with my custom status line (whose definition is a bit more complicated
than the above), a string of ^^^ starts to appear in the status lines.
May it depend on not resetting colors with %* (e.g., using %1*%f%2*
instead of %1%f%*%2*)?
