As far i know there is no mention of rama hiding behind a tree during 
the killing of vaali. valmiki does mention that rama and other monkey 
leaders were behind the tree, during the first encounter of sugriva 
and vaali, wherein rama doesn't shoot at vaali ...but when sugriva 
goes to fight vaali again, with a garland on his neck, the author(i.e 
valmiki) doesn't mention that rama was behind a tree.
      Again the statement that rama was behind the tree is made by 
vaali, who is lying on the ground caught in the jaws of death...A man 
who is severely injured and is nearing his death does not have any 
kind of reasoning left in him...he will just say anything...I think 
this statement is also made by valmiki in valmiki ramayana....i don't 
remember the exact sanskrit verses...If any other member knows it, 
he/she can update us about it.
