Bug#572994: vim-tiny: vim.tiny does not show candidate in replace with confirmation

Package: vim-tiny
Version: 1:7.1.314-3+lenny2
Severity: normal

vim.tiny does not show what the current candidate string for 
replacing is when performing a prompted search, eg

 :1,$s/text/replace/gc

this makes it slightly tricky to know what will happen when
responding to the prompt. 

the large vim package does do this, but I have trouble believing
that this is an extended featue of vim and not a bug in vim.tiny.
