Title:
  wget crashed with SIGSEGV in __memset_avx2()

Status in wget package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in wget source package in Xenial:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact] 
   * wget will crash while displaying progress bar under narrow terminal
   * Upstream already has fixed this issue in commit 7099f489 and 7cb9efa6
  Steps to reproduce:
    1. execute "wget http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/16.04.0/ubuntu-16.04-desktop-amd64.manifest"; under a narrow terminal (such as width less than 40 characters)
  Problems:
    1. The wget crash with segmentation fault
  Expected behavior:
    1. wget will not crash

  [Test Case]
    After upgrading to the new version, the repeating the above steps should give expected behavior.

  [Regression Potential]
    Potential of causing regression is relatively small for a two line change for assertion check

  [Other Info]



  EDIT(other user): The crash actually happens when the terminal window
  is too small.

  When I try to download a big file with wget on Ubuntu 16.04 it crashes
  after a couple seconds.

  To reproduce the bug try the following:

  wget http://releases.ubuntu.com/16.04/ubuntu-16.04-desktop-amd64.iso

  I've asked another guy on IRC on channel #ubuntu-it to try and reproduce this bug
  and he said it was crashing also on his machine.
