I don't know if anyone in the mists of time has noticed and reported this
feature before, but there is a serious bug in the line folding
stuff when wrapmargin is non-zero.

Repeat-by:
	Set wrapmargin=10.
	Create yourself a small file with the same line copied 3 or 4 times
	with each line just shorter than where the line break would occur.
	Go to the last word on line 1. Add in some text to cause a line split.
	Got to the last word on line 2.
	Type '.' to repeat the insert.
	Observe

Fix-by:
	Don't know...I haven't the time to look just now.
