> After running the following snippet, resizing my Emacs frame to be narrower than ~18 characters causes Emacs to freeze.  This seems to be because the wrap-prefix is too wide to be displayed unbroken.

No, the case of the wrap-prefix being too wide to be displayed was
covered.  It's the case of it being wide enough that no place is left
for even a single character after the wrap-prefix that caused this
problem.

Should be fixed now on the master branch.  Thanks for a clear
reproducer.
