Subject: Vi will have an 'internal error' in vgoto
Index:	/usr/ucb/ex/???	4.2 BSD

Description:
	If you have ONLY 1 line in a file, it is longer than 80 chars, and
	you are not in the first 80 chars, then there can be an error in
	vgoto when trying to redisplay the file, from a suspended state.

Repeat-By:
	Create a file with > 80 characters in the first AND ONLY line in
	the file.
	type ^Z
	get your csh prompt
	type fg
	notice the internal error

	If you have more than 1 line, the screen will remain blank, until
	you type some char, vi will then correctly redisplay the screen.
