Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-terminal

The background (and possibly foreground) colour leaks to the next row
when the output forces the terminal to scroll down while wrapping the
coloured text.

Reproduction is relatively easy:
1. Open terminal.
2. Create a link to a missing file with a long path, so that it needs to wrap.
  ln -s /path/to/some/very/long/and/definitely/missing/file sample
3. List the file (long format with color)
  ls -ln sample
4. Continue listing until the terminal fills up, and starts wrapping and 
scrolling at the same time.
5. Observe the new lines background colour.

** Affects: gnome-terminal (Ubuntu)
