Here's a little more information. While on a Linux system, I opened
an xterm window, ssh'd to a system running Cygwin 1.5 on Windows XP,
executed "stty onlret", started vim and executed ":!stty" with the
result that the stair-stepping is still there.
 :!stty
 speed 38400 baud; line = 0;
 -imaxbel
 onlret
That would suggest that the problem is with vim on Cygwin and not
with rxvt. Vim on Linux doesn't do this.
