This might be an old problem not yet fixed.  I did fix one instance in
this area in dev.12 - to check, you might want to compare with dev.11

The fix I made applies to UTF-8 display, and was tested with ncurses:

* fix an off-by-one difference between UTF-8/non-UTF-8 comparisons in
  HText_appendCharacter() which would leave an extra character wrapped in some
  cases, e.g., in the options menu when field-numbering was turned on -TD
