Rxvt and vim font redraw

[Ken Collins]

I noticed that vim isn't working correctly with the windows rxvt and the
Lucida Console font. It crops characters with tight kerning when it redraws
the cursor. If you move the cursor over a list like the following:

com
com
com

The 'o' and 'm' will lose the leftmost portion of their characters when you
pass over the letters. When vim redraws the screen, the characters are
restored. I tried Lucida ConsoleP, but I got the same result. I also tried
adjusting the character spacing in the font descriptor, but that doesn't
seem to work.

Vim works correctly with the same font in a command terminal.

Does anyone know of a fix or a better console font? I'd prefer to use the
"fixed" font that comes with XFree86.

I'm using Win2k and vim 5.7-4. I've also tested it with vim 5.8-1.
