That isn't what I saw.  What I saw is that it split individual lines
but didn't recombine them.

For instance, I inserted this text

======================================================================
Then maybe I don't understand what you meant by "fill".  This feature
produces exactly the same display as M-q, but it doesn't insert newline characters into the buffer.
Isn't that what you meant by
"filling"?
======================================================================

and enabled visual-line-mode, and what I see looks like

======================================================================
Then maybe I don't understand what you meant by "fill".  This feature
produces exactly the same display as M-q, but it doesn't insert newline
characters into the buffer.
Isn't that what you meant by
"filling"?
======================================================================

My Emacs sources are from December,  If this doesn't fail for you,
maybe it has been fixed since then.
