bug#29143: 25.3; xterm-mouse-mode issue in evil-mode

[Rafal Lukawiecki]

Using emacs in text terminal via iTerm I have enabled mouse
events with xterm-mouse-mode. It works well when I do not use evil-mode,
however when used with evil mode on, clicking anywhere causes the line clicked 
on
to be highlighted (visual mode) from the beginning to the clicked point,
however the cursor moves to the start of the line. At the same time
Messages buffer reports errors:

[ < is undefined
user-error: No previous search

I would be happy to provide more information to help debug this issue.

Thank you and regards from Ireland,
Rafal Lukawiecki
