Bug in Stevie?

I have a problem with Stevie, the vi clone for GNO.  It doesn't seem 
to be able to break a line in two by inserting a newline in the
middle of a line--the rest of the line from the insertion point on
gets lost.  

To get this to happen, bring up vi and move to a full line of text.
Move to somewhere in the middle of the line of text and type the 
following keys:

i
return
escape
^L

Once you type the ^L to redraw the screen, the remainder of the line
following the inserted newline is gone!

Am I doing something wrong, or has this nasty bug not been found
