I installed the latest Wine and got the current build of putty, and I see
that "background color erase" is on by default (it was off in older
versions).  The internal editor looks correctly if that option is on and
incorrectly if it's off.  TERM is "xterm", infocmp shows that "bce" is
present in the terminal definition.

If you have different results with the current snapshot of putty, please
report to the putty developers.
