Let me do some more experimenting because I installed the new cygwin and
couldn't run (version mismatch problem), so I reverted to the current,
still official version. Now, less-358-2 + xterm works the same way that
the previous version of less (i.e. displays on all 40 liens, but puts
the mode line on line 24.) I also have a W2K system I can try things on.

Unfortunately, I won't be able to experiment until Wednesday.
