Does this repro with a vintage console window as well? (i.e. conhost.exe)?

If I run WSL from a vintage console, I reproduce it too.

This also happens in a desktop ubuntu VM, it seems to be a bug with the default command prompt environment variable (PS1). https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/105958/terminal-prompt-not-wrapping-correctly
