    Specification Shell and Utilities Issue 6
    Location in Spec 39164 in SUSv3 TC2 pdf.
    Problem Summary Expected output of Test is incorrect, due to accepted enhancement request.
    Problem Text XCU-ERN 12 has changed the requirements for the vi P command, the new
    spec wording is

    If the buffer text is in character mode:

    1. If the text in the buffer is from more than a single line, then set
    to the last column on which any portion of the first character from
    the buffer is displayed.
    2. If the buffer is the unnamed buffer, set to the last column on
    which any portion of the last character from the buffer is
    displayed.
    3. Otherwise, set to the first column on which any portion of the first
    character from the buffer is displayed.

    This makes the expected output wrong because it expecting the current
    cursor position after the P operation to be at the wrong location. Per
    1) it should be at the beginning of the inserted text after the P operation.
