nonoptimal vi behavior

I haven't looked at the source to VI for ages and ages (how does one
express this in terms of sagans? :-) ), but it seems like making vi use
al & dl rather than cs should be a relatively simple fix, considering
that the change to make it use cs was added between 4.1 and 4.2....  I
think the screen updates for insert & delete line are done someplace
deep inside ``ex_vadj.c'', or you could always just have the startup
code forget about the ``cs'' string if both al and dl exist!
