[vile] Vile console glitches

Hello,

I've recently moved back from xvile to using vile on the terminal in
order to take advantage of GNU screen for REPL interaction.
Unfortunately a few things seem to have broken, either on my machine
specifically (using glibc 2.10.1 and ncurses 5.7, for anyone
attempting to replicate my problems), or in vile (9.7x locally) in
general. These console-related problems are:

1. Setting the color scheme doesn't seem to have any effect - the
$palette updates and displays properly in the show-colors display, but
the colors remain the same. This still works properly in xvile though.
2. SIGWINCH seems to be handled improperly no matter the controlling
terminal, which results in numerical garbage trailing behind the
cursor across the display. Again, xvile's behavior when resizing
remains correct.

If these aren't known error, or aren't even affecting anyone else,
I'll probably dive in and try to find the problem when I have time,
though I thought it might be a good idea to find out if anyone knows
more about them first.

Thanks in advance,

Brendan MacDonell
