PATCH: multibyte test



Extra multibyte test that tab expansion counts widths properly.

It uses the double-width Latin characters, in case you can't see them.
This stops me from having to learn Japanese.

It's working here --- and this machine's a few years old --- but this
might be the sort of place we'll see oddities.
