A line break that occurs while the line is written byte-by-byte to stdout - because the terminal itself is too small - will break the mechanism of deleting the current line and prepending the time. Because the current line now is - from the viewpoint of the terminal - actually multiple lines long. All these lines would have to be deleted and the cursor would have to be set to h=0 and v=current_line - (nr_of_multiple_lines_for_this_line - 1).

complicated.
