I've got a patch to psql that offers a "no wider than terminal" option,
patched against cvs head. Would anyone be willing to test this before I
submit the patch?

# \pset format aligned-wrapped
# \pset border 2
# select * from distributors order by did;
Word wrap debug: rows=11 terminal=66 total_w=108
Max= 8 18 56 13
Avg= 2 11 17 0
