This one is particularly tricky to fix.  Here's why: Emacs supports
arbitrarily long lines.  What do you do if the line doesn't even fit
on one screen?

Emacs already mishandles this case, so fixing ^V in such a way that
these lines still don't "do the right thing" might not be so bad.

Anyway, the problem is present in later releases of Gosling Emacs
as well, so you're not alone....
