Bug Description
A very long line of text (total file size approximately 757kb) will not be able to be displayed correctly using GUI-based programs. Attached is a picture of the file open in gedit. Just as a test, I opened the same file in MonoDevelop, and the same corruption occurred. However, if I read the file using the command-line cat, the file displays perfectly fine in the terminal window.
I expected the file to display normally in the window.

When this file is open, I also receive very strange window resizing behaviour, in which parts of the screen become stuck to the window.
