The broken setup is:
sys-libs/glibc-2.25-r9
sys-devel/clang-5.0.1

It works on:
sys-libs/glibc-2.26-r7
with either of:
sys-devel/clang-5.0.1
sys-devel/clang-6.0.1

So yes, it is a glibc bug.
Depending on the version, either just wcwidth returns incorrect values
for the monkeys (my case) or iswprint considers them non-printable.

It sounds like in your case we're genuinely broken in the virsh
code, not merely tests broken.

I wonder if we need extra logic in the virsh code to handle escaping
for the cases where wcwidth is returning wrong data, so we still get
column layout correct ?


I don't think so.

1) wouldn't that involve reimplementing the wcwidth function?
2) users crazy enough to use new unicode characters are welcome to
  upgrade to new glibc, or suffer through misaligned virsh tables.

Nope, red herring. My maint point was that there are more than 2
possible results.
