At some point in my Emacs life, I put the global-mode-string stuff in
the bottom right window only using an :eval construct.  I don't have it
anymore but looking at the logs, it looks I used something like

    (:eval (and (window-at-side-p nil 'right) (window-at-side-p nil 'bottom)
            stuff...))

HTH.
