Hans was kind enough to provide me his proposed patch offlist, which
boils down to this:

--- bash-3.0/lib/readline/display.c     2005-07-06 05:59:59.000000000 -0600
+++ bash-3.0/lib/readline/display.c     2005-07-09 07:57:13.632987200 -0700

              else
                ninvis++;               /* invisible chars byte counter */
+               last++;
            }

          if (invflset == 0 && rl >= _rl_screenwidth)

But I have some questions about it.  First, Hans, did you forget some {}
so that the increment of last occurs only on the else block, or else
why did you indent it at the same level?  Second, this is in a readline
file, so do you want to look closer at it, Charles?
