Arch Devs,
vim-9.2.0437 for some reason includes `PP` at the top of each new

$ vim foo
This just started with this version update. Downgrading to
vim-9.2.0388 (and vim-runtime-9.2.0388) resolves the issue.
Does this need a bug?
I have seen the same thing.
The PP goes away when you do an insert and add some text.
If the file is not blank/new the PP doesn't show up.
I copied /usr/share/vim/vimfiles/archlinux.vim to /etc/vimrc and there
isn't any difference
I opened a bug upstream:
https://github.com/vim/vim/issues/20140
'vim -T xterm' is the problem (what vim chooses by default with TERM=xterm)
You can set 'vim -T ansi' or 'vim -T vt320' and it works fine. Whatever
changed broke the builtin xterm behavior for certain terminals.
