Comment(by judah):

 Thanks for the patch!  I've applied it to the repo at
 http://code.haskell.org/haskeline and released haskeline-0.6.4.5 which
 contains the fix for it.

 For my future record: wcwidth is supposed to return `-1` for the width of
 escape characters, which we handle as a separate case.  But due to the
 32/64-bit mismatch, it returned a very large size for their width.  This
 caused an infinite loop in the line-breaking algorithm for wide
 characters.
