This is a feature: Emacs automatically switches to line-truncation in
any partial-width window whose width is smaller than the value of the
user option truncate-partial-width-windows.  The default value is 50,
but you can make it smaller if you want Emacs to wrap lines in very
narrow partial-width windows.

There's no bug here.
