Thanks very much for pursuing this.  I updated my master branch, applied
your patch and rebuilt, but when I executed the recipe of my OP, I saw
the same effect with the patch as without it: only the current line
respects w->min_hscroll, the other are displayed from BOL.  I'd be happy
to try and help diagnose this further, if you can advise me what to do.
