On the plus side, it appears that when this problem hits, the code is
still correctly doing the column alignment taking account of these
unexpected escape sequences.

So how about storing 2 sets of expected data for this test case.


Two is not enough. My clang 5.0.1 produces a test that displays the
monkeys correctly, but does not count their width properly:

$ VIR_TEST_RANGE=4 VIR_TEST_DEBUG=1 ./run tests/vshtabletest
TEST: vshtabletest
4) testUnicode                                                       ...
Offset 24
Expect [      государство
-----------------------------------------
1    fedora28      ]
Actual [государство
-----------------------------------
1    fedora28]
                                                                     ... FAILED
In the unit test then call iswprint() to figure out which of the
two expected data sets to compare against.

How does it help us during runtime when someone uses such characters in a
domain's name? It would still return a row consisting of escape sequences.

Not necessarily, see above.

So
what's the point of providing 2 sets of expected data for a test just so it can
pass, rather than use unicode characters we know would pass and everything else
is a platform limitation which is out of our hands.

I still see a benefit in having testUnicodeBasic that passes everywhere
(does it?), and conditionally running the monkey test on platforms where
iswprint returns the proper results.
