Both patches (the new and the old) seem to fix the original problem.

However, I now notice that both patches introduces a new problem. From 
the tig repo (with no .tigrc), I run tig to view the single-line 
changelog. I then hit "Enter" to view the first commit (which is your 
fix). I then hit "j" and "k" to scroll through it.

*Sometimes* the entire line gets highlighted with a green background, 
and *sometimes* it doesn't (i.e., sometimes the green background doesn't 
highlight the whitespace between the end of the line and the right-hand 
side of the terminal, and sometimes it does). That is, if I hold down 
"j" to scroll through the commit, and then hold down "k" to scroll back, 
lines that were highlighted all the way from left to right on the way 
down are only highlighted part of the way on the way up.
