I looked this over and concluded that the real problem was that the logic
that added space for newline/wrap marker columns was many bricks shy of a
load. For example it had
if ((opt_border < 2) && ((hmultiline && (format == &pg_asciiformat_old)) ||
(dmultiline&& (format != &pg_asciiformat_old)))) iwidth++; /* for newline indicators
*/
which aside from being nearly unreadable conflated the header wrap column
with the data wrap column; and even if those had identical conditions for
being added, which they don't, you'd need to count two more columns here
not just one.
I rewrote it to correspond more accurately to what the printing logic
actually does, and pushed it as 0e0776bc9. Let me know if you still see
any problems here.
