Here's a patch that will prevent the huge values for the screen width from
causing at least one issue with line_size:

*** ../readline-8.0-patched/display.c   2018-09-30 21:37:48.000000000 -0400
--- display.c   2019-05-16 16:50:44.000000000 -0400
***************
*** 604,607 ****
--- 604,610 ----
    register int n;

+   if (line_size <= _rl_screenwidth)   /* XXX - for gdb */
+     line_size = _rl_screenwidth + 1;
+
    if (invisible_line == 0)    /* initialize it */
      {

You're still going to have to deal with some horizontal scrolling if the
input line gets long enough.
