I wonder if that accounts for modern, coreutils 8.28-1, fmt's weirdness
that I've seen for a while but never got around to investigating?

    $ yes x | fmt | awk '{print length, $0}' | uniq -c | sed 5q
         11 69 x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x

         16 71 x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x 
x x x x
         11 69 x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x

         16 71 x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x

         11 69 x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
