Public bug reported:

Just before entering Xenial's Final Beta Freeze, glibc was updated from
2.21 to 2.23.

2.22 brings in a regression around wcwidth(), causing incorrect behavior
of certain apps when printing certain characters in various terminal
emulators.

Upstream glibc bug:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19852

Original report about incorrect behavior in terminal:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=762052

Could you please fix this regression?
